Earth Day is such a wonderful day to celebrate with kids. It provides the opportunity to discuss concepts such as recycling, litter, and even the tree life cycle. Make some of these Earth Day crafts to open up the conversation. My kids are much more likely to listen to what I have to say with glitter and glue in their hands!
