Like most toddlers, our little Jack loves to make a mess! And I have to admit, on most occasions even mommy has fun getting in on that mess-making action. But this month, I was excited to teach Jack the importance of cleaning up in honor of Earth Day. Today we all have the opportunity (or should I say responsibility) to give back in honor of our environment. Whether you decide to start a composting project at your local school, visit a recycling facility with your family or plant a tree seedling in your yard, both adults and kids, we can all give back.
