About Us
Earth Day is April 22nd, but the new trend is to celebrate all week and take this opportunity to help kids learn how to take care of the planet.
momstown has pulled together some of the great resources we've found on the web, as well as some of our in-house crafts, to help your kids celebrate Earth Week and have some fun!
The EcoKids website has some great tools and resources! For kids old enough to go online and explore on their own, click here to visit the kids section of the site.
For the preschool set, this printable matching activity is a great way for kids to learn which 'bin' (compost, blue box, grey box) different waste items can go into.
A fun colouring sheet for all ages helps to celebrate how kids can do their part to protect the Earth.
momstown also has a great collection of crafts to celebrate Earth week, ranging from activities using recycled materials, to painting your own earth, to suggestions on the best plantings for kids to help with.
Scholastic has a great selection of books for all ages to help celebrate Earth week, including Go Green Canada (pictured above) that includes puzzles, games and quizzes.
Happy Earth week!
