Earth Day Activities

One of the bins had brown paper to represent dirt. The other just had water and some gemstones and shells to represent the ocean. In the dirt pile, I added some cards that had pictures of recyclables and trash. I found garbage can pencil holders at Dollar Tree that we used to separate the cards in the correct bin. 

We added some cocoa powder mixed with olive oil to the ocean bin and had to clean the animals 

I also added some shredded plastic bags to the ocean and the kids had to clean that up too. 

We put frosting on graham crackers and made flowers out of fruit. 

We also did some ocean scenes on the graham crackers. 

We did q-tip painting and painting inside of a ziploc bag.
