Happy Earth Day!

In celebration of Earth Day, the first and second graders had to create hats made out of recyclable materials. Here were our two creations. Alanya is modeling her wreath made of newspaper with paper tulips adorning it. Benjamin went for the "let's see how much crap we can glue gun on this box" method. Both were spectacular!

I think it's wonderful that Earth Day has stretched into much more than a day promoting awareness and education on going green. Teach the children early and hopefully they will incorporate all of these ideas and philosophies into their lives.
