We’ve been learning a lot about our planet at school. Earth Day, April 22, is a wonderful time to get your children thinking about ways they can make a difference for our environment. Yes! Toddlers and Preschoolers can help save the earth too! |
Here are some things you can do at home with your child to celebrate Earth Day.
Earth Day Activities for families with Preschoolers
- Help plant a tree or native plants in your garden
- Help clean out a closet, room or garage and donate outgrown toys, books & clothes
- Walk to the store, a friend’s house… instead of driving
- Go swimming instead of turning on the air conditioning
- Put on some gloves and walk around your neighborhood picking up trash
- Help replace some old fashioned incandescent light bulbs with new energy efficient ones
- Go outside for a hike, a walk or a ride and simply enjoy nature
- Play a board game instead of watching TV
Every day preschool habits to start or improve on
- Turn off appliances and lights when you leave the room
- Recycle paper, plastic, glass
- Turn off water when brushing teeth
- Put left over food in the refrigerator not the trash
- Use reusable bags for groceries
Everyone, no matter how old or how young, can help make Woodland Hills a better place.
I hope you like this post. I love helping parents, teachers and children learn, grow and become better people! Everyday I'm delighted to spend my day in the place I love with the people I love. If you don't know me already, please read my Teacher Feature.
