  1. Upcycled Suncatchers

How to Do It: Cover the plastic lid with a generous amount of glue. Now coat the glue completely with glitter. You can now discuss the amount of land and water they believe the earth contains. They can adjust the quantity of blue or green glitter on the lid based on that. Now give this a few days to dry out. When it becomes easy to remove the adhesive, you’ll know it’s dried. To enjoy the glittering earth, punch a hole in it and thread it through the ribbon to hang it close to the window.

2. Paper Plate Weaving

Paper Plate Weaving is a perfect Earth Day craft for kids — it’s creative, uses simple materials (some can be recycled!), and introduces the idea of resourcefulness and textile reuse. Here’s how to do it:


🎨 Paper Plate Weaving Craft for Kids

🧶 What You’ll Need:

  • 1 sturdy paper plate (plain or colored)
  • Yarn or string (use scraps if possible!)
  • Scissors
  • Tape
  • A marker or pencil
  • Optional: buttons, fabric scraps, beads for decoration

🪡 Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Plate:
    • Draw an odd number of marks (9, 11, 13, etc.) evenly spaced around the rim of the plate.
    • Cut small slits at each mark (about ½ inch deep).
  2. Create the Loom:
    • Tape one end of the yarn to the back center of the plate.
    • Start stringing the yarn across the front of the plate, fitting it into the slits to form a sunburst pattern (like spokes of a wheel).
    • Once all slits are connected, tape the other end on the back too. This forms your loom.
  3. Start Weaving:
    • Cut a long piece of yarn (different color) for weaving.
    • Tape one end to the back and begin weaving over-under-over around the yarn spokes.
    • Push the yarn down every few rounds to keep it tight and even.
  4. Change Colors (optional):
    • To change yarn colors, just tie on a new piece and keep weaving.
    • Tuck ends under the layers or tape them on the back.
  5. Decorate (optional):
    • Once done, let kids glue on recycled materials like old buttons, fabric scraps, or beads to personalize their woven “Earth.”

🌎 Earth Day Tip:

Encourage kids to use leftover yarn, scraps of fabric, or even strips cut from old t-shirts. Talk about how reusing materials helps reduce waste!

4. Beach Day

A Beach Day is a perfect way to celebrate Earth Day—fun, active, and full of natural beauty! Whether you’re heading to the ocean, a lake, or a riverside beach, you can turn the day into a kid-friendly, eco-conscious adventure.

  • A smooth stone
  • A piece of seaweed

🌿 Eco Tip: Teach kids to observe, not disturb—collect only what’s already fallen or washed up.


🧼 2. Mini Beach Clean-Up

Give each child a glove and a small trash bag or bucket. Challenge them to collect trash or plastics they see.

🗣️ Use the opportunity to talk about how plastic harms sea life and why it’s important to keep beaches clean.


🪣 3. Sand Art or Sculptures

Let kids build:

  • Sea animals out of sand (like turtles or fish)
  • Earth Day messages like “Love the Earth” written in shells or pebbles
  • A mini recycled beach sculpture using clean, found objects

5. Painting Recycled Material

You’ll need water, paint, a paintbrush, plastic bottles, containers, glass bottles, and anything else that can be repurposed.

For instance, you can paint a plastic container and drill tiny holes in the bottom to make it into a plant pot, or you can use a glass wine bottle to make a pot for a money plant.

6. Vegetable Painting

You’ll need paint, a paintbrush, water, paper, ladyfinger, and a lotus stem.

How to Do It: For this Earth Day activity, use vegetables like ladyfinger and lotus stem to paint a masterpiece. The vegetable can be cut on one side, dipped in paint, and used as a stamp on paper. As you can see, the pattern prints easily. For Earth Day, ask the children to repeat and make a painting.
