One of the nicest things about celebrating Earth Day is that you can honor the planet and teach kids about being eco-friendly while having fun!

We’ve got lots of ways to enjoy Earth Day with your kids. Some simply involve downloading kid-friendly activities to do together.  You’ll also find suggestions for locating activities at zoos and aquariums.

If you have tiny tots at home, see wonderful Earth Day activities at Inhabitot, a site dedicated to sustainable design for kids. And you can check out great ways to entertain stylishly and beautifully while using fewer natural resources. We offer suggestions on eco-friendly food and drink, flowers, and tableware and décor.

And though there’s not much about paying bills that makes anyone think about celebrating, we just saw this intriguing calculator, offered by Florida Power & Light. It shows exactly how much we can save in terms of water, trees, carbon emissions, and gasoline, by eliminating paper bills and paying bills online.

Happy Earth Day–have fun!
