Earth Day (April 22) is one of my favorite days to celebrate because I think the
earth is a beautiful place that needs to be taken care of. Like anything precious
or of value, our earth should be protected

### #1. Plant trees or a garden

One way to spend time with your family, get some fresh air and create a better environment
for your kids is to plant trees! I’ll admit, I wouldn’t know the first thing about
planting a tree from a seed, but with the help of arborday.org, you can plant a 
tree that has already begun growing. If you are interested in planting trees in 
your local park, be sure to contact your parks and recreations department first.
You could also start a little herb and vegetable garden in your yard, which we have
fun with every year. If you have never grown veggies before, cilantro is the easiest
and fastest. Once you get that going, you should feel a little more confident in
trying something else.

### #2. Find a local farmer’s market

April marked the opening of all of the farmer’s markets in our area. Spring has 
sprung, so veggies and fruit are ripe and ready to be harvested! Some of my favorite
outings with my toddler are going to farms, picking veggies and having a picnic 
by the garden. Other markets have plenty of activities, such as face paintings, 
live music, crafts for kids or gardening workshops.

### #3. Conduct a neighborhood or park clean up

You can do a simple search online to see if there are any city wide cleanups, such
as keepamericabeautiful.org. Otherwise, you can create your own cleanup team with
your family or neighborhood. Host a block party or barbeque as a thank you for neighbors
who join in your efforts to keep your neighborhood beautiful.

### #4. Wear GREEN!

Simple! Easy! I love it! Pick a green shirt from your closet or head to your local
thrift store. My favorite idea is to use a shirt that has a stain or a tear on it,
and just cover it up with a patch or some paint. Get creative with it- paint or 
patch a tree a quote or something earth friendly.

### #5. Crafts

[Visit this site for fun craft ideas](https://www.crayola.com/crafts/earth-day/)
to expose your kids to earth friendly ideas.

### #6. Start a recycling bin

Each family in our neighborhood is provided with a recycling bin, and the bin is
picked up once a month. You can contact your local water and utilities department
to request a bin. If your city does not provide bins, search online for local recycling
centers. The last city I lived in, I just had several labeled store-bought bins 
in my garage that I separated all of our recyclables in, and took them to our local
center every couple of weeks. It’s fun to let the kids throw the cans in the big
dumpsters at the centers, too!

### #7. Everyday is Earth Day!

Use Earth Day to create awareness of how important the earth is and of our responsibility
to take care of it. Then just apply your new knowledge and ideas to every other 
day of the year.
