• Instead of buying decorations, make them using scraps from around the house and outside.

• RECYCLE- and not just cans and bottles- ask an adult to help research items that can be recycled in your community. Then, with the help of your parents, start recycling all that you can in your home!

Contact your local solid waste office for details regarding
your hometown-recycling program.
