These Earth Day Worksheets are a fun way to get kids asking questions and thinking about what they can do better to help save Planet Earth. This Earth Day Worksheet pack is made up of five educational and entertaining ways to teach kids about taking care of Earth.
Grab these Earth Day printable worksheets to use with your children. They’re great for moms of young kids looking for Earth Day preschool worksheets, and wonderful for teachers with kids in kindergarten through late elementary school.
Or even just moms looking for a great starting point to teach for their kids how to take care of our Earth on April 22nd!
Using these Earth Day activities is a good way to supplement your other learning activities or lesson plans. Students of all ages seem to have fun making tissue paper butterflies (great Earth Day craft!), making animals out of play dough or clay, and going out on a nature scavenger hunt or nature walk!
Or have fun at home by making dirt cookies or a dirt cake (completely with gummy worms) together!
Once the day is over, kids can gather around the dinner table and share what they learned about Earth Day while having fun doing activities on these printable placemats. You could even ask some of these Earth Day questions to keep the fun going!
How To Use Earth Day Worksheets
Start by downloading the Earth Day printable pack PDF below. Once you’ve printed out the activities, grab your kids, some crayons, colored pencils or markers, and a few pencils, and hand out the pages.
Explain the Earth Day activity directions to the kiddos and watch their imaginations explore as they take on these fun activities.
Take the simple aspects of each page for the younger kids – find different letters on the page, work on sounding out blends for beginner readers, and everyone can have fun coloring the coloring page.
Older kids will enjoy creating their own comic strips and drawing activities they can do to help take care of our Earth!
Or even getting lost in the word search. Even I enjoy getting lost in a little word search every once in a while.
There’s an activity for everyone of all ages to learn a little something about Earth Day with these free printables.
