It is April! Did that surprise anyone else? I cannot believe we are in April already!
April is a fun month because of EARTH DAY! There are lots of great events, activities and promotions that will pop up this month. And I have decided to join in on all the fun. Actually I am honored to be joining Mommy Labs in a 20 day long Earth Day blog hop to share all of our great ideas of how to celebrate Earth day with our kids.
So on April 10th we will begin this blog hop and hope that you will come back to join us with a post to share!
To kick off an April of celebrating the Earth I thought I would share some of our past ideas.
- Go to a public program.
- Help out an animal at the zoo.
- Clean up a pond or park
- make a recycled craft - lots of ideas listed here!
- Go for a bug safari - gets you super close to the Earth!
- a nature reading day - enjoy the whole day with books about the Earth.
- Make a birdfeeder for your backyard - lots of great birding with kids ideas.
Okay, that is enough links of past ideas for now! I am excited to share some of our new ideas for how to celebrate Earth Day with all of you over the next few weeks. Mommy Labs and I will be posting ideas every Thursday and on April 10th the big Earth Day Celebrations blog hop will begin!
I just wanted to say for a minute how thrilled I am to be working with Rashmie from Mommy Labs. She has some of the most amazing ideas and activities that she shares on her blog.
I cannot wait to nature journal like this with my girls. Her creative way to make a journal for her daughter is AWESOME! And I love the effort that she put into a simple leaf rubbing activity and it totally shows in the amazing end product. Plus, she shares some information that I am super passionate about and just love that we think the same on so many of these topics! Her blog is truly inspirational and a great place to find awesome learning and play ideas for your little ones. Please head over and check out Mommy Labs!
Abbie, the links to ideas on your page are so so inspiring!
Totally loved reading the 'bug safari' post! Will be reading other links when I have some time over the weekend! We love being in nature, recycling things for art/craft. Your ideas have given me a new zeal today!
