How do you explain Earth Day to kids?
Every year on April 22nd we celebrate Earth Day all over the world. But you children might wonder what is Earth Day.
Earth Day is an environmental movement that started in 1970. Since the first Earth Day statistics show that over 1 billion people in over 190 countries participate every year.
Why Should We Take Care of Our Earth?
But why is it so important that we take care of Mother Earth?
First of all, children need to understand that we have only one Earth and it is our responsibility to take care of it, so our planet stays clean and healthy.
If we do not care about our environment it will become polluted which is harmful to our health.
Air pollution can cause different problems and diseases, such as respiratory diseases and cancer.
