The Propane Education and Research Council this week announced www.PropaneKids.com. 

The website is an interactive online activity center for parents and caretakers of preschool and young school children looking for learning opportunities. 

The site includes games, activities, and even science experiments for children that are designed to reinforce the importance of propane safety and education with a focus on the farm. 

Tucker Perkins, President and CEO of PERC, says, “We wanted to do our part to help provide a fun, free learning center for young children.” 

At PropaneKids.com, parents, caregivers, and their children can explore a virtual farm or create their own, play games like farm bingo and spot-the-difference and color digital coloring pages. 

Americans living on acreages and farms away from the city center are already familiar with propane in use on their land. 

Nearly 40 percent of farms in America rely on propane in their farming and ranching operations to run pumps and engines, heat buildings, and dry and process crops.
