Earth Day Celebrations
Yesterday, April 22nd, was Earth Day and people everywhere are talking about ways to reduce, reuse, and recycle in order to slow down the damage we are inflicting on the Earth. It is important to teach kids early on about the benefits of taking care of our planet. Recently there have been several new kids’ TV shows that focus on teaching kids about the environment, including Johnny and the Sprites and It’s a Big Big World. A deal was recently signed for a new series called Snapper, that will focus on the environment as well.
I’ll be posting information about those three shows later this week, but in the meantime you can explore some of these great Earth Day activities offered around the web:
- Disney’s Guide for Grown-ups lists several kid-friendly activities, as well as a list of links to other pages related to Earth Day.
- PBS Kids has a list of activities, information about connecting kids to nature, and a list of books about nature divided by age groups. You can also watch three new videos from Milkshake about taking care of the Earth.
