Welcome to a very special edition of the Love to Learn Linky – it’s our Earth Day Linky!
Because I strongly believe that kids today need to have an appreciation for our natural environment before they can truly understand why we need to take care of it, I have rounded up a variety of amazingly fun kids activities centered around learning about our air, water and land.
My hope is that you will find some activities that will help your child/children better understand our beautiful planet and the amazing natural resources we have – which will naturally lead to them wanting to protect these gifts!
Some of these topics naturally overlap – that’s kind of the point after all! But I’ve roughly split them up into air, water, and land activities for your searching convenience!
