This extra time at homeĀ has given usĀ the opportunityĀ to focus on someĀ differentĀ lessons for our kiddos.Ā And, with Earth Day coming up, weāre looking forward to talking to our kids aboutĀ our impact on the earth.Ā Weāve rounded upĀ some recycling activities to try while social distancing...Ā
šĀ Set up a small ārecyclingā center in your home for your kiddos to sort the recycling into separate bins or boxes (even if it does all get dumped back together for the recycling truck to pick up!).Ā Ā Ā
š Make a craftĀ from recycled goods.Ā Wash out yogurt and milk containers, save cardboard boxesĀ and egg cartonsĀ and see what your kids can createĀ with a little tape, timeĀ and a LOT of imagination!Ā
š Clean out closets and drawers to find old clothes your kids have grown out of and donate them to someone who canĀ useĀ them.Ā
š Read books or facts online about recycling and ways you can work as a family to help our Earth!Ā
