Finally, perhaps showing kids the Google Doodle Earth Day logo is a good way to tie in and talk about the way that companies support Earth Day, and show them some of the creative things that businesses do to encourage Earth Day and help get the word out.

Earth Day is celebrated by over 150 countries throughout the world. The purpose of Earth Day is to encourage and promote a green, healthy environment for our planet earth.

Not only is Earth Day a time to educate and promote the benefits and values of being “green” minded, but Earth Day is also a great day to get outside and take part in Earth Day activities.

Some great Earth Day activities include:

• planting trees
• picking up trash in your neighborhood
• recycling
• handing out “green” pamphlets with valuable information
