Earth Day Adventures: Reading and Caring for Our Planet
Meaningful Earth Day Experience
Wednesday, April 22
3:30pm - 4:30pm
Join us to learn simple, everyday ways to protect the environment and make mindful, planet-friendly choices.
This program is designed to provide a meaningful Earth Day experience by combining children’s literature, environmental education, and culinary literacy. Using The Earth Book by Todd Parr as its foundation, the program engages children through storytelling, discussion, and hands-on activities to make environmental responsibility both accessible and fun.
Todd Parr’s focus on small, achievable actions encourages children to feel empowered in caring for the planet. Chef Fiefie builds on these ideas by incorporating a culinary component that links sustainability to everyday food choices, teaching participants how to reduce food waste, understand where food comes from, and make mindful, planet-friendly decisions.
