So, I know I’m a day late, but I’m sure the Earth won’t mind me celebrating with you a little late. I hope you don’t mind either. Besides I think I’ve heard “Everyday is Earth Day” before, and we really celebrated all weekend by enjoying the wonderful weather here in Texas. So if you missed out yesterday, don’t worry you can still enjoy Earth Day too! Maybe we will just call it Earth Week!

Not sure what to do? Anything “earthy” goes! Here are some ways to celebrate with your kids.

• Plant something (trees, plants, flowers)
• Play in the sand
• Go on a nature walk (point out different leaves, bugs, flowers, etc.)
• Feed the ducks
• Turn your lights off all day (use flashlights at night)
• Make a craft with nature items
• Make granola bars

If you are looking for more activities to do with the kids check out Tip Junkie’s Earth Day post. Lots of cute ideas!

My favorite ideas are those that get you moving and enjoying the outside at the same time! We went to a park, fed the ducks, played in our sandbox, and cleaned our bird bath (not so fun, but the birds are happier.) What about you? How are you celebrating Earth Day Week this year?
