KOB Classroom

In the Keep Oklahoma Beautiful Classroom, you will find activities that both engage the student/child and give the instructor/parent an opportunity to teach about the importance of “green” practices. The KOB Classroom offers indoor and outdoor fun! These activities and projects will teach students just some of the things they can do to improve our earth, and of course, keep Oklahoma beautiful! 

From a rainy day inside to when the sunshine brings light to a picnic, there is always time to share with the next generation how what they do can impact life in Oklahoma and beyond. This section was designed to give you the resources to do just that!
