Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

April 22 is Earth Day, and to celebrate all things green I put together a recycling themed storytime. The kids were pretty sharp, telling me things that they knew could be recycled. We talked about how to reuse items so that they could serve a new purpose. We also talked about what they could do to be a bit greener, such as walking or riding a bicycle, buying food from farmer's markets, and using reusable bags at the store. Below are pictures of the books, flannel boards, and craft I used. The craft is a dragonfly, I just happened to use black wings which makes it look like a regular fly, but the kids had many colors to choose from. Enjoy!
