Happy Earth Day!




Happy belated Earth day! Yesterday to celebrate we played outside and planted seeds. The boys also enjoyed the special dessert we made - funky monkey bars! We also painted a toilet paper tube for a craft but Logan decided to use it as a elephant trunk.
Earth day made me think about the Eco friendly things that we have been trying to do as a family:
  • Eating Vegetarian
  • Shopping at the farmers market
  • Recycling everything possible
  • We started a compost bin
  • We have almost entirely eliminated using paper towels, paper napkins, Ziploc bags and paper plates
  • Keeping the heat low in our house
  • Turning off lights etc/ when not in use
  • We use Eco friendly Laundry and dish soap
  • Reusable bottles and bags
  • We consign or donate things when we are done with them
  • We buy a lot of kids stuff at garage sales/consignment

Happy Earth day!
