Let’s Celebrate Earth Day!
On April 22nd we celebrate Earth Day! Hooray for this magnificent place that has been created just for us! What most of us don’t realize is that we don’t have to wait for one day a year to celebrate…we can show our respect all year long. One way to really see how amazing our surrounding are – is to look at things that around us and get creative! We can take every day objects like tin cans, baby food jars, egg cartons, and create something fun!
Here are a few ideas for fund projects that can be done with everyone in the family!
