Idea for solution 1: There is a wheel that is powered by the water circulation system in the fountain that the children also manually can control, to see how water affects its movement. There could also be a mechanism for children to control the flow of water, such as a lever or valve, to see how varying amounts of water affect the wheel’s speed. There could also be buttons that children and also tourists can press to hear about the fountain and where it will explain the importance of sustainable water management and how efficient water use is critical in many parts of the world. Additionally it could highlight the importance of utilising natural energy sources and conserving water.

Idea for solution 2: There are small buttons around campus that have an audio in them that kids can go around scavenging to find them. The buttons will have sound that can talk about what significance the specific place has, some cool fact and something about the environment and sustainability. This would make campus more interesting for children and also adults that want to hear more about campus.

Idea for solution 3: A community garden, this would be a space where kids can grow and tend to various kinds of plants. Through this practical experience the kids can learn the value of plants in preserving a healthy ecosystem as well as the benefits of growing their own food.
