Mother Earth and the Quakeia Babies Story Book and Coloring Book
Childrens Natural Disaster Resource This story is dedicated to the children that perhaps could do with a little help coping and making sense of a very traumatising event through a light-hearted and entertaining story. This way, it is hoped they can then connect the principles of earthquakes and aftershocks into a fun-filled learning experience, giving them the ability to smile and find comfort when they experience these earth tremors.
This book was conceived in the midst of the first major (5.3) aftershock following the main 7.1 quake of 4 September 2010.and continued to support them through the quake of February 22, 2011
The children spread the message around their families and at school and I was often sked what did I do to make the children so calm…they connected the aftershocks to Mother Earth and realised they now had no need to fear as they had an easy way to explain away the very scary feelings they felt each time an aftershock occurred.
Having a story by which to make sense of a very difficult concept is empowering each child as each day they met up with these earthquakes and aftershocks.

Thus the STORY IS BORN.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
37.2% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
62.8% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
