Kid-Friendly Fridays: Earth Heroes ‘Express Yourself for the Earth’ Contest!
Friday, January 4, 2008 at 06:02AM 
It took me a minute to realize it’s Friday, with all the holidays and the fact that I just took a couple of days over New Years to visit an island in the North Sea. Which was cold, yes, but beautiful even though the North Sea is filled with industry. Anyhoo, it is Kid-Friendly Friday and a post over at TreeHugger just reminded me that I wanted to remind you of a great kid-friendly creativity contest…Earth Heroes Express Yourself for the Earth Art Contest.
The Earth Heroes Program is an all-inclusive program for kids ages 9 through 17. Where youth of all ages come together to IGNITE their passions, get EMPOWERED to follow their dreams and UNITE in community on a local and global scale. The goal is to get youth active in their communities and schools with regard to environmental conservation, and to help them feel “heroic” about their contributions in co-creating a safer world for themselves and future generations. They will inherit the earth… so it’s time we assist them in becoming Earth Heroes!
The contest invites kids ages 9-17 to share their passion for the environment through writing, painting, photos, or even a video documentary. It is sponsored by The World Trust Network, a place where kids can interact with each other through a global connection to learn about different cultures and inspire one another. Entries can be submitted until March 14th, 2008 so if you know a creative kid who might enjoy sharing their view of the environment, invite them to Go Green over at Earth Heroes!
