Toddler Science: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!

Toddler Science: a Preview of our Earth Day Activities


Earth Day is celebrated in the US on April 22. It is a day designed to inspire awareness and appreciation for the Earth's environment. As we become more aware of the need for Living Green and Recycling, not just for a day or a week, but every day, it will become important to introduce this to children from an early age. This awareness can be introduced by participating in activities such as the ones listed below. So, make every day an Earth Day and Live Green!
