Celebrate Earth Day – Create a Wildlife Habitat

Happy Earth Day! The first Earth Day was organized on April 22, 1970 to promote ecology as well as an awareness of, and appreciation for, the Earth’s natural environment – including its plant and animal life. Some communities celebrate Earth Week, an entire week of activities. It’s a great time for getting outdoors and studying nature, while showing respect for the natural world around you. Typical ways of observing Earth Day include planting trees, picking up roadside trash, recycling, and supporting conservation programs along with learning about environmental issues such as habitat destruction and pollution. Looking for a great homeschool project or family activity? Why not create a wildlife habitat for birds, butterflies, and other creatures in your yard! Gardening for Wildlife is a fully illustrated e-book that will walk you through the process step by step. 28-pages ~ only $4.95!
