Earth Day Ideas for Kids and Families

Day 5 of the April Blog Challenge from Green Moms Network:

Oh, dear.  Today's topic is "Earth Day Ideas for Kids and Families," and I am not very good at being eco-friendly.  (When is Earth Day anyway?  I know it's this month because I am excited for the Conscious Box this month, but...I forget which day it is.)  

Here's my best go of it, but I think most of these are pretty obvious:

1. Do something kind for a stranger.
2. Go on a nature walk with a reference book to help kids identify plants, flowers, trees, birds, etc.
3. Plant a tree.
4. Plant a garden.
5. Go to a farmer's market and talk about where all the food comes.
6. Adopt a pet.
7. Make your own ecosystem.
8. Reuse something you would otherwise throw away, like this or this.
9. Hang your laundry out to dry.
10. Walk somewhere instead of driving.
