Water Watchdog is a hands on water monitoring program for youth that increases awareness about water and water management issues. It encourages individual actions that will contribute to healthier ecosystems.

The Water Cycle

A Water Watchdog knows something that many people have forgotten.Put your mouth close to a window or mirror and breathe on it. What do you see? The water in your blood circles through your heart, around your body and some escapes into your lungs. This is the water you breathe out, making the window wet. The wetness shows that you are part of the water cycle - that's something many people have forgotten.

Water, like the wheels on a bicycle, travels in a circle. The circle it travels is the water cycle. Sometimes tears trickle down your cheeks and sweat drips down your back. This evaporates into the air and goes somewhere else. When you are thirsty, how delicious it feels to have a cool drink wash down your throat! These are other ways that show you are part of the water cycle. It's nice to belong.
