Earth Day is today and I am sharing how kids can help the planet this month in celebration of Earth Day on April 22nd. Here is a roundup of ways kids can get involved, help the planet, celebrate Earth Day with some fun crafts, movies or shows to watch, and great books to read all month long. So come along and learn with us and help celebrate the beautiful place we live. You can find this Wall-E backdrop for Earth Day at Pixar Place Hotel in the lobby. Today we had an out of this world moment meeting the one and only WALL-E! He was at Pixar Place today only until 3pm.
