Posted on March 30, 2022January 29, 2024 by Pragmatic Mom

Earth Day is coming up on April 22, 2022, and to celebrate I’ve partnered with Barefoot Books to do a huge Planet Protector giveaway. Our giveaway includes books, activity cards, and a sticker activity book about renewable energy and natural resources. In addition, the giveaway includes a tote bag made from recycled water bottles, a tree planting kit, a gorgeous photo print taken by Julian Lennon, and a letter as well as a QR code link to a suite of online activities for teachers and families.

$10 from every pack sold will go directly to The White Feather Foundation, which brings awareness to worthy organizations by amplifying their voices, expanding their supporter communities, and providing funding for their initiatives.

To enter the giveaway, please fill out the Rafflecopter at the bottom. What are you planning to do to celebrate Earth Day? Thanks for sharing!

    I love all these books. I donate books to my doctor friend for her office waiting room. She believes so strongly in children reading and learning from books.
