How To Make Less Trash

It's A Good Idea to Make Day Earth Day!

As we approach Earthday it becomes apparent that some of us still haven't figured out how to make less trash.  Certainly, corporations are not helping us by putting less in packages and forcing us to buy more of them. We also succumb to the ease of grabbing a 12 pack instead of a large bottle of something on the go. There are so many reasons why it's hard to be less wasteful! But we can be aware of the simple ways we can eliminate waste in our every day activities.

Here is a great Chart from BeZero.org. 

Memorize it! Use these simple and sustainable ideas to help you cut down.

World Peace That's A Good Tune!

Hmong American Peace Academy encourages kids to sing for World Peace.

"We are all different" poem by Judith Gorgone recited by first graders at Hmong Charter School

In 2004, Hmong American Peace Academy, Ltd. in Wisconsin opened as the first Hmong Charter School in Wisconsin to teach children the importance of their culture and their world.

They believe that by overcoming adversity they will able to better preserve their cultural identity, while earning personal accomplishments and cultural honors along the way.

This winter teacher Jennifer Zappia had her first grade sing Planetpal's IKIDS CLUB theme song "We are all different" to a very receptive audience.  What a great job they did! According Jennifer the reason they sang it was because "one of the main goals of the school which is to teach children to be kind, peaceful, and to care for others."  She also stated "Your poem delivered the perfect message for what I teach my students every day. Thank you for writing it."

The Words to "We Are All Different" Poem: (You can sing it, too!)

We are all born

in a different way

How we look

and what we say

From different countries

around the world

Of different genders:

boys and girls

Of many sizes

and colors , too

The things we like

and the things we do

We're sure glad

it works this way

The world is so colorful

everyday

I f everyone

were the same , you see

You wouldn't be you

and I wouldn't be me!
