We recently did a family raft trip on a river in Utah that was rich with cultural history. Pot shards, rock houses, petroglyphs and other signs of past generations. One particular area was littered with pot shards and all the kids were amazed. They also wanted to each take home one or more pieces, which gave me a great opportunity to help them understand why the pot shards should be left where they were found. It took a little convincing but eventually all the kids (8 of them under the age of eight) decide to leave the artifacts for the next "kids so they could see them." It was great to see little people beginning to develop an outdoor ethic.
