Kids’ Eco Day

June 28 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

The Department of Waste Resources is excited to offer a free event for K-12 children living in Riverside County on Saturday, June 28 from 10 am to noon. The Kids’ Eco Day (formerly Summer Recycle Camp) is hands-on, fun activity will have several zero waste recycling crafts for children to make from reused items like tin cans, paper, and CDs. Kids will move between stations to work on different activities like sidewalk chalk, planting succulents, making art from recycled and reused products, or salvaging stained fabric by learning to tie dye.

Information about the importance of reuse and recycling will be discussed with each craft.  All participants will get to play our recycling game to see if they can make the best decision for items destined for the waste can and whether it should be recycled, donated, handled as hazardous waste or sent to the landfill.  It will be a fun active event for kids to use their imagination and creativity to make something crafty from unwanted materials.

Registration is required for all participants, so reserve your seat today at Eventbrite.

This event will be outdoors in our Resource Garden and it will be a zero waste program.  Participants are encouraged to bring a refillable water bottle to refill at our hydration station.

The Department of Waste Resources offers a variety of FREE environmental education classes related to waste reduction and sustainability. Class instructors provide attendees with professional learning and resources for instructional materials.
