Colouring Corner
Interested in learning lessons about water while letting your creative juices go wild? We have online drawings for all those budding artists around the world from 1 to 101!  
 
Feeling super creative? Help us build our coloring book! Send us your pictures on water and the environment – be they landscapes, animals living in different ecosystems, people living in arid or tropical zones, etc. Send drawings no bigger than A4, in black and white and we will put them online with your name as the artist. Remember all pictures should have a message about saving water that can be understood by people around the world.



When you take a bath you use on average 150 litres of water whereas when you take a shower you only use 50 litres! You use even less if you turn off the shower when you are washing your hair and body.
