Did you know over 1 billion people around the world celebrate Earth Day each year? From schools and cities to families and kids, Earth Day is a global reminder that we all share one amazing planet—and it’s worth protecting.
A Little History
The very first Earth Day was held on April 22, 1970. It began in the United States when people came together to speak out against pollution, oil spills, and the destruction of natural spaces. It was such a powerful movement that it helped launch the modern environmental movement and led to the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Now, more than 190 countries recognize Earth Day as a time to raise awareness and take positive action. And kids can be a big part of that change.
Why Earth Day Matters to Kids
Children are naturally curious and full of wonder—just like nature. Earth Day is a chance to teach them that small actions can make a big difference. Whether it’s turning off the lights or planting a tree, these habits help create a cleaner, kinder world.
That’s why we created a brand-new Earth Day video just for families, classrooms, and curious young minds.
