Quarto Publishing Group USA Inc Zero Waste Kids: Hands-On Projects and Activities
Book SynopsisInspired by internationally acclaimed environmental activist, humanitarian, and adventurer Robin Greenfield, Zero Waste Kids features fun and easy illustrated projects and activities that will help your family reduce, reuse, and recycle at home, at school, and in your community. While most kids probably aren’t going to grow all their own food for a year like Robin has, Zero Waste Kids features fun and practical projects for growing some of your own food, with advice and encouragement for why doing so is important. And, instead of wearing all their trash for a week like Robin did, with Zero Waste Kids, they’ll learn how to audit their trash, to really understand how much waste they’re personally contributing to the earth’s landfills.Zero Waste Kids helps children to understand the world they live in and inspire them to start living in a more sustainable way. Of all the environmental problems we face, “trash” is one that is easiest to understand because it is very visual, whereas many other problems are more abstract. Zero-waste isn’t the solution to the world’s problems, but a very good place to start. Zero-Waste projects include: Conduct a household trash audit to discover who throws away what and why. Swap disposable shopping bags and lunch boxes for reusable, zero-waste options. Compost your food scraps and grow your own food. Make natural-dye play dough, leaf prints, and more. Zero Waste Kids is every kid’s go-to guide for making a difference. This book is printed on FSC-certified paper using soy inks. And, leading by example, Robin is donating all of his proceeds from the book to environmental nonprofit organizations. Activities contributed by April Hepokoski, Zion Lights, Heidi Rose, Alyssa Binns Gunderson, and Michelle Cassar.Trade Review‘From conducting a household trash audit to growing your own food, inspiring activities and achievable projects to help children become earth activists.’ * The Bookseller *Table of ContentsIntroduction Chapter 1: Crafts Make Your Own Recycled Paper at Home Make Natural Playdough Create Napkins Out of T-Shirts Make a Nature Buddy Make Your Own Cloth Wrap Using Furoshiki Make a Papier-Mâché Piñata Make Zero Waste Confetti Make Paper Seed Cards Make Your Own 3-D Tree with Fruit Peel Decorations Make a Bag—and Use It for Anything Chapter 2: Food Make Your Own Granola Bars at Home Make Wax Food Wraps Pack a Zero Waste Lunch Go Zero Waste Grocery Shopping Chapter 3: Gardening & Composting Make a Windowsill Garden Grow Your Own Sprouts Make a Raised Garden with Repurposed Materials Build Your Own Compost Bin Build a Bee Hotel Build a Bird House for Your Garden Make Your Own Seed Balls Chapter 4: Nature Sit and Observe Activity Make Pressed Flowers Make a Bird’s Nest Build A Shelter/Home in Nature Go “Plogging” and Pick Up Litter Plant a Community Fruit Tree Chapter 5: Zero Waste Activities Conduct a Trash Audit Create a Zero Waste Home Trash Sorting Exercise Make a Reusable Zero Waste Travel Kit Declutter and Donate Have a Zero Waste Party Chapter 6: Activism and Making a Difference in Your Community Reuse School Supplies Project Food Waste Fiasco Create Signs to Make Recycling and Composting Simple There is No Away: Hold on to Your Trash for a Week Garbage Art Project Have a Clothing Swap 50 Changes About the AuthorAbout the ContributorsAcknowledgments Index
