So Many Ways to Celebrate Earth Day!
I want to share one of my top secrets with you - celebrating holidays and fun days with kids doesn't have to be expensive. With a bit of searching and creativity, you can enjoy simple activities that will help you teach important lessons (like conservation) and create special memories.
As a homeschool mom of 5 boys, I've had to work with a very limited budget over the years. But, I still wanted to make sure that my boys and I were able to celebrate important occasions.
I quickly discovered the power of free printables and have always been so thankful for the amazing resources that others share. In fact, it's how I got into making and sharing free printables with you 😊
We've had a bunch of fun learning about and celebrating Earth Day in our homeschool. This year, I wanted to gather our favorite resources and add some new ones to try. Hope you and your students like these Earth Day activities as much as we do!
Tips for Using These Earth Day Printable Activities
Before I get to all of these awesome Earth Day freebies, I wanted to offer some tips and tricks to help you get the most out of these experiences.
It may seem counterproductive to use a printer and paper when it comes to Earth Day. I totally get it! Whenever possible, I use a black-and-white laser printer to reduce the amount of ink (and ink cartridges) that we're using. Also, I will print activities on the back of paper that's already been used.
I highly recommend that you print on both sides of the paper, if possible. If you can't print on both sides, flip the paper over and use the back for doodling, handwriting practice, writing Earth Day words, or any other creative ideas that you can think of!
Prior to using any of these free Earth Day printables, make sure to gather whatever tools that you'll need to complete. A few supplies include pencils, crayons, color pencils, fine-tip markers, and dot markers.
