Hey Friends!
Earth Day began in the year 1970, making today the 50th anniversary of Earth Day! This serves as a reminder to try to take care of and protect our environment in our daily lives. It represents a movement that has continued decades later. Over the years, different communities across the country have found ways to minimize the damage we do to planet Earth and keep our home and those who live here healthy!

While we’re home staying safe, we can still have fun and celebrate the holidays with Family. Today we Celebrate Earth Day! With a few materials from around the house, you can make an easy fun window decoration to make the house “earthy.” Let’s get creative!
Step One: Supplies
Let’s check around the house to make sure we have the supplies to make our very own decorative planet Earth!
You’ll need the following...
1. Coffee Filters
2. Blue and Green Markers
3. Spray Bottle
Once you have everything you need, we can get to the fun part!

Step Two: Drawing
Now it’s time to add some color to your Earth.
Take the blue marker and fill up most of the space, leaving a few areas white to fill up later with green.
Remember that the Earth is mostly water, so the blue should obviously overpower the green.
Lastly, fill in the remaining space with green scribbles.

Step Three: Spray & Dry
Now we are on our last step. You're almost done!
Fill your spray bottle with some water and give your coffee filters a few squirts. Remember to not spray too close to the filter!
Let it dry next to the window. The colors will blur together, leaving you with your very own planet Earth decorative art piece.
Wasn’t that fun?
