The Earth cares for us, so we need to care for it too.
By 10 year old Miyah, our first young person’s blog.
Hi everyone! I am SO excited to show you my video. I made this blog for my Uncle Dean because he is always talking a lot about Sussex Bay, and I wanted to make something special too. We only see each other once or twice a year as he lives a long way away so when we spend time together, we get out into the park with our family and my dog Harley.
I filmed it in my local park on a really windy day in December. My hair kept blowing over my face and I kept trying not to laugh at how funny it looked. It kept flying into my eyes and even over my nose! My mum and Uncle Dean were filming while trying to stop Harley from barking because he got so excited he wanted to join in too. He kept jumping around and wagging his tail. I was giggling the whole time and having so much fun and at the end I had to just run around.
I wrote down what I wanted to say so I wouldn’t forget anything important. See what you think…
I often dream about nature and I drew a picture at school to show what I sometimes think about when I’m asleep. Being in nature is fun and the Earth cares for us, so we have to care for it too. Our Environment needs to be clean and all people need to be kind.
I love exploring outside and noticing all the little things, like the wind, the birds, and the leaves moving. I had the best time making this video and I am really happy you are watching it. I cannot wait to make more videos with my Brother, Mum and Dad, and show Uncle Dean and Sussex Bay everything I can do.
Our next blog will be written by Ella Garrud, Coastal Communities Officer, Sussex Wildlife Trust. If you would like to write, film or create a blog in whatever way you fancy: hello@sussexbay.org.uk
