Exposing children to beauty of beaches, can help them appreciate nature

STOMPer Seafarer spotted a bunch of kids collecting mussels and clams at the beach at Kranji Reservoir and feels that exposing them to nature, will help them learn to appreciate it.

Says this STOMPer:

"These pictures were taken at the Kranji Reservoir Park at Kranji Way.

"This family was camping at the park during the weekend. The children enjoyed collecting black mussels and clams at the beach at low tide.

"If children are exposed to the sea at a young age, they would learn to love the sea and outdoor life.

"The view of Johor Bahru with its tall towers from the park.

"Some the bivalves like clams (Marcia marmorata) are washed ashore at low tide. "

Important that the parents are safety conscious and keep the kids at safe site. Unlike some parents who had no knowledge or common sense. That is also the place where the mother and child was carried away by the current.

Firstly parents should be law abiding and responsible...yes its ok to go to such places for nature appreciation but it is illegal to remove them from its natural environment....whats worst would be to encourage such acts...i hope the parents get educated by some authorities!Secondly its illegal to pitch tents in reservoirs!Ignorance will not be bliss when charged by authorities!
