Start a recycling bin

Since this printable is about Earth Day, what better time than now to start recycling at home?

Add more words

This printable is not the entire list of essential words to focus on for Earth Day, so let the kids add more words to the list.

Go on an Earth Day hike

Taking the time to enjoy the beauty of nature together is vital to do! The world is waiting to explore outside the door or window, so why not start immediately?

Take the family on a hike or bike ride, or enjoy sitting outside on the porch. You can’t go wrong when you’re out in nature, getting fresh air!

What are ways that a family can celebrate Earth Day?

This Earth Day, take some time to appreciate the beauty of our planet with your family! One way to celebrate is to pick an outdoor activity you all can do together.

You could hike a nearby nature trail, or if the weather is nice, organize a picnic in your backyard or at a park.

Helping out in the local community is another excellent way to mark the day – think volunteering at a beach clean-up, planting trees in a park, or signing up for a beach monitoring program.

If spending time indoors is your style, get creative by making art projects inspired by nature and its preservation.

Make it educational – have each family member research an endangered species, then create something symbolic of their findings to decorate the house.

Celebrating Earth Day isn’t only fun – it can help forge strong family bonds while creating positive change for the planet and future generations of families!
