When explaining Earth Day to a young preschooler, your best bet is to keep it simple. Talk about easy, long-term ways your family can take care of the earth as a way to celebrate, and maybe even do something special on that day like taking part of a community clean up.
This free coloring page from educational website ABCmouse.com, is simple, but packs a powerful message. Ask your preschooler to color it and then hang it in your house -- showing your preschooler that you are proud of his work, but to also remind him of how important loving the earth is.
