Dan’s Van – The Eco-Mobile of Three Little Woods
Meet Dan’s Van, known throughout Three Little Woods as The Eco-Mobile, the trusty green machine that helps Dan the Gardener and his friends on all their adventures.
With its shiny panels, friendly hum, and a dashboard full of dials and dreams, this van is more than just a ride, it’s part of the family. Powered by biodiesel and sunshine, the Eco-Mobile proves that even an older vehicle can live a clean, green life.
Its roof is fitted with solar panels that keep Recycle Michael’s batteries charged, while the back seats are filled with flowerpots, tools, and seedlings ready for planting. Up front, there’s always a space for Skipper the Dog, who loves watching the world whizz by.
Together, they travel across Three Little Woods, helping neighbours, planting trees, delivering flowers, and spreading smiles wherever they go. The Eco-Mobile has seen it all: muddy tracks, windy days, and even the odd runaway wheelbarrow! But wherever it drives, it carries the same message: small, thoughtful journeys can lead to big change.
