Celebrate Earth Day!

PrintPrintE-mailE-mail 0 comments

Earth Day will be celebrated all over the world this year on April 22nd. It’s a day when we celebrate nature and educate ourselves on ways to help preserve the earth.  There are so many fun things you can do with the kids on Earth Day, so don’t let the day go to waste! Here are a few ideas:

  • Turn trash into recycled crafts like a tin can planter or milk carton bird feeder!
  • Check out an environmental book from the library, such as Duckey and the Ocean Protectors, which teaches kids to appreciate and protect the environment.
  • Color pictures!
  • Take a trip to the local zoo. Have the kids read the signs at each exhibit so that they can appreciate the importance of each animal in our planet’s ecosystem.
  • Go see the movie, Earth. Not only does this look like a great movie, but Disney plans to plant a tree for every ticket sold opening weekend.
  • Plant your own tree with the family.

Earth Day can be educational and entertaining, so why not participate? You can teach the kids a lot about the world around us by having them take part in environmental holidays!
