Want to find a way to teach the kids about Earth Day and about how to care for our planet? We found a ton of great ideas to help you out. A lot of the crafts are the same ones that we all made as children - using paper rolls and egg cartons to create cool creatures.
Make a windsock: Here is an adorable windsock made from a coffee can and fabric scraps. It would be super easy and fun for kids of all ages, and what a fun way to brighten up your home Earth Day decor! Go to Preschool Rock for more info.
Dry some Flowers: Who knew that you could re-use the silica packets from shoe boxes? Well you can, to dry flowers! Check out this great project from Planet Pals to find out how.
Make stuff from dryer lint! We're just dying to find out how this works - how cool to be able to re-use all of that dryer lint! Please, if anyone tries it out, post here how well it works and what you did with it!
Planet Pals had one of the best lists of Earth Day crafts for kids, Bloesm Kids is a gorgeous site with some amazing craft ideas, and Preschool Rock has some wonderful ideas for younger children. Have fun with your kids and teach them about loving the earth at the same time!
