(Note: The Internet is a dynamic place and web sites can come and go quite quickly. This is one of my older articles and some of the links may not work anymore. If you find that this is the case I invite you to look at some of my more recent articles. My links section has my favorite links from past articles and is checked regularly for non working links.

Happy Earth Day! Well, it's not quite Earth Day yet but if you want to do some net explorations before Earth Day is upon us, this is the place to be. Be sure to check out my Earth Day sites from 1999 too!

The first site is Save the Earth Scavenger Hunt, from Holy Redeemer Catholic School. You only have until Apr. 21 to get your entry in so you better get cracking. If you don't want to enter you can still start the hunt here.

The Happy Earth Day coloring book can be downloaded in PDF format. PDF format is a file format that requires a program called Adobe Acrobat Reader to view. PBA: Earth Games has Earth day games for kids of all ages. Barbara J. Feldman's Surfing the Net with kids has some more fun and safe sites for kids for you to investigate.

Kroger foods has a page with some non-computer Earth day activities. Earth Day Groceries describes an Earth Day activity for a class or group of kids. Earth Day resources does the same.

Earth Day tips for parents has some activities to try without your parents, too, especially the colouring book and quiz. This Earth Day at Alverado show what some other kids have done for Earth day in the past. Energy Quest has loads of great stuff about energy conservation which helps keep the earth green and healthy.

To end off my collection of Earth day links I'm going to point you towards a place I just can't keep away from. If you really want to see what the Earth looks like you can't beat the NASA site. Visit the NASA Photo Gallery page and page down to the section labeled Earth. One place not to miss here is the Ultimate field trip section of the site. Astronaut Kathryn D. Sullivan describes pictures of the Earth taken from the space shuttle. If you have a fast modem or the time to wait for downloads visit the NASA Video Gallery, esprecially the Earth Observation Movie Studio which has short videos of the Earth focusing on a different natural parameter.

Well, I think that should be enough links to keep you out of trouble for

I took a look at your links before I put mine on just to make sure. There is so much good Earth day stuff out there it wasn't hard at all.

Hi, Wayne! You have some wonderful Earth Day links! I don't think we crossed one another a bit. You found totally different activities than I did. This is great. I need to print some of these fun thin ...
