This year, throw a party on Earth Day! Get the kids together, invite friends over, and celebrate the earth to raise awareness and inspire your little ones to get involved.

Make Compost Pudding. This delicious (we promise) dessert idea from One Charming Party is easy for kids to help make and may lead to good discussions about the importance of composting.

DIY Earth Day Crayons. Stuffed Suitcase blog shows us how to make these beautiful Earth Day Crayons out of recycled crayons that you (definitely) have around the house.

Gather the little ones around for a book reading with one of our favorite earth-conscious books about the environment.

The Artful Parent shows us how to make these beautiful air dry nature prints with clay and found materials.
