Environmental problems are becoming serious by human economic activities. With international concern about global warming problem, the Kyoto protocol was adopted in 1997. It is necessary for human who has been facing environmental problems to build a sustainable society in which economic activities coexist with nature. This study thus aims to develop and expand environmental education systems which enable to play a game with joy.

(3) These two environmental education system were summarized and contributed to a journal and accepted as referred papers in 2009. (4) The developed and improved environmental education system was resented in the conference in 2010.
