Let’s take care of our Earth every single day. Here are a ten things that WE can do to teach our children to take care of our environment:
Watch Wonders of the Planet by NASA online www.facebook.com/CrayolaEducation/events on April 20th from 2:00-3:00.
Look for ways to recycle around your home. Think reduce, reuse and recycle.
Take your own bags to the store.
Read Recycle by Gail Gibbons.
Go on a nature scavenger hunt at a State Park, beach or your neighborhood. Then make a list of what you found.
Plant flowers.
Visit the Brock Center in Virginia Beach.
Use recycled materials to make art. Paint a cardboard box, make a mini-easel out of a used pizza box or build a robot.
Plant trees.
Make your own Earth with blue, green and white paint. Use a white paper plate, a few marbles and guide them around to make the Earth.
