A Little Green Just for Kids!

I love kids, they make everything more fun. I can say that with a straight face because I don’t have any, hee-hee. But really they do!

Here at Daily Tomorrow the focus is usually on green living from an adult perspective but all the Halloween photos I’ve been getting in my inbox are reminding me about the little eco-footprints.

So, in honor of the ones who make everything more fun - those who we hope to leave the planet in good shape for - here are some of my favorite kid-friendly eco-blogs and resources.

For starters, here at b5media things are getting very green and not just on the Science & Health Channel. Over on the Family & Relationships Channel is Tree Hugging Family hosted by the coolest green mom Jennifer Chait. You can find great posts like Clothing for Tiny Tree Huggers, Seasons Natural Toys and much, much more. Tree Hugging Family is one of my favorite blogs so check it out.

Just weeks ago one of my fellow Inhabitat writers was blessed with twin boys and the exciting news has kicked off ‘Inhabitot’ - a kid-friendly series filled with sustainable design ideas like the DucDuc Eco-Friendly Austin Crib or the Oeuf Eco-Friendly Convertable Crib, both designed to grow with your children. Or fun decor like the Endangered Species A-Z Graphic Poster. Inhabitot will be running over the next several weeks so be sure to stop by over at Inhabitat.

Looking for a way to connect kids to nature? Journey North is one of my favorite natural science websites engaging students in a global study of wildlife migration and seasonal change. Kids share observations and track the migration patterns of monarch butterflies, robins, hummingbirds and gray whales, among others. The site is filled with maps, pictures and activities and everyone is welcome to participate online here.

And from TreeHugger, who’ve got a whole lot of “How to Go Green” ideas, there’s How to Green Your Kids Toys with both a quick reference and a very in-depth green guide with ideas, products and resources.

There’s always more to be discovered and green kids are everywhere so check back here for more eco-friendly kid’s stuff in the future - stay tuned for Kid-Friendly Fridays coming soon!

Have fun!
