Every day is Earth Day, but we celebrate officially on April 22nd. Get the kids excited about the things they can do with these crafts and activities. We have everything from recycling projects to pictures that serve to stimulate conversation about this ongoing effort to preserve our planet. If you are looking for a more active way to celebrate we suggest you check out a website called Live Youth Strong that has a blueprint for individuals or groups geared to different ages working together or independently as they explore ways to protect our planet and many other topics.

Making Friends Youth Strong has a program to help kids and their friends to explore new things. Your little ones can earn a Clean Earth Helper Patch that they can proudly display on a tote or hat. Getting involved in the program can be a one time activity or a longer commitment to a cause that you and your family or organization feel dedicated to.

Free Kids Crafts has a number of projects that fit in the Earth Day theme. This Give A Hoot Don’t Pollute cut and paste craft can be posted on the family fridge as a reminder. Turn Off the Lights Coloring Page reminds young children of an easy way to conserve energy.  The Earth Day Helping Hands Poster provides ideas for them to put their hands to work doing their part. While the Litter Bug is a whimsical reminder that trash can be recycled.

The Inspiration Edit turns the Earth into a person who can be sick or well depending on how we treat it.

Simple As That Blog has these Earth Day Treat Cups filled with Earth Day Popcorn to put a smile on kids faces as they hear about taking care of the Earth.
