Every year on April 22nd, people all over the world celebrate Earth Day, a special time to show love and care for our planet. But this week, the spotlight was on younger changemakers—students, classrooms, and communities coming together in creative and inspiring ways to help protect the Earth.
Across the United States, schools turned into centers of environmental action, learning, and fun. From planting trees to building bee hotels, kids proved that you don’t have to be a grown-up to make a big difference.
Here’s a peek at how Earth Day 2025 was celebrated by awesome kids and schools just like yours!
Every April 22nd, Earth Day calls on us to pause, reflect, and recommit to protecting the planet we call home. What started in 1970 as a grassroots movement has grown into a global call to action, reaching over a billion people in more than 190 countries. This year’s Earth Day theme, “Our Power, Our Planet,” reminds us of a profound truth: that we hold the power—individually and collectively—to shape the future of our world.
Every year on April 14th, National Gardening Day reminds us to dig in, get our hands dirty, and reconnect with the earth. It’s more than a celebration of soil, seeds, and sunshine—it’s an invitation to grow something meaningful. In recent years, National Gardening Day has evolved from a backyard pastime into a growing movement tied deeply to sustainability, resilience, and environmental awareness. As climate concerns continue to rise, gardening offers a beautiful and practical way to contribute to a healthier planet, starting in our own backyards.
