6 Things to Do with Kids to Celebrate Earth Day


In honor of Earth Day here is a list I came up with of 6 things you can do with kids to celebrate Earth Day.

1.        Take a walk with your kids, take a trash bag with you and pick up trash while you walk.  For older kids you could turn this into a game and see who can pick up the most.

2.       Have a nature scavenger hunt.

3.       Plant a garden, or flowers.

4.       Read a kids book about Earth Day.  There is a bunch of books at Amazon.com

5.       Make an Earth Day craft with your kids.   One idea is take a paper plate and give your kids blue and green markers or crayons, and let your kids color and draw their version of Earth.

6.       Print out an Earth Day Activity Packet at Spoonful.com

These are just some ideas of things you can do with kids to celebrate Earth Day.  I am sure there are lots of other things you could do as well. I hope you enjoy this list. 

Happy Earth Day!
