Earth Day is quickly approaching and this year is celebration number 50! If you have little ones or just want to honor the earth, then Earth Day is an awesome day to get involved with. When it comes to Earth Day, sometimes you don’t know whether to plant a tree or to kiss a tree. However, these Earth Celebration Ideas are awesome and will help you choose an idea.
Plant a Garden
When it comes to Earth Day, why not plant a garden? It’s a great way to give back to the Earth and learn a thing or two as well. What I love about planting a garden on Earth Day is that you can easily do it together as a family.
Have an Earth Day Party
It may seem kind of weird to throw a party for the Earth, but then again, it’s not so weird. You can make little party favors to represent Earth Day. Think about doing little bushes for cupcakes. Planting a tree at the party and then each year have the party at the same location. Trees provide oxygen and are essential to life as we know it, without trees, the world would be destroyed.
Give Back to the Earth
You can really celebrate Earth Day by giving back to the Earth. Pick up trash, help plant trees, or even help build something out of recyclables. It’s all up to you on Earth Day! Decide how you will give back and enjoy every minute of it. The cool thing about giving back on Earth Day is that you get to decide how you do it. Get people involved if you can and do things to help celebrate the Earth, together. Clean up Your Block by picking up trash, litter, and things that don’t belong in nature. Plus it helps plants and trees keep our neighborhoods and communities clean helps our Earth stay healthy all year long. Celebrate a healthy Earth by taking the time to pick up trash around your neighborhood or around the block.
Make a Recycling Plan: Recycling keeps the world going around. The more we fill up landfills, the more we destroy our planet. Instead of filling up landfills, make a plan to recycle more. Start by recycling cans, plastics, or paper and gradually build upon it until very little reaches your trash can. Use recyclable bags each time you head out shopping, here is one of my favorites!
Clean a Local Park: Another great way to keep our Earth clean and celebrate the beauty we all enjoy is to clean up a park. So much trash and debris get left in our parks where our kids play and learn. Celebrate by making the world a better place for the little ones. Plant some flowers to give your neighborhood park. Just be sure to ask your local Park Boards before you go too crazy.
As you can see, celebrating Earth Day is a lot more fun than you can imagine. When I think about Earth Day, I think about ways I can give back. Of course, you can have fun on Earth Day too!

Since schools are closed and we’re still under lockdown, there is not going to be much of an Earth Day celebration this year. Usually we do something with the grandkids. Like plant a bush or a tree, pickup litter. This year I was thinking of donating some money to an Earth Day Organization to cover the cost of them planting a tree, Thank you for sharing this information and project!
