It’s Earth Day & a half day! Spend it at the library learning tips & tricks to help take better care of our planet!
Join Stacey Giaquinto from Litter Awareness, LLC for a hands-on, eye-opening program where kids learn how trash and single-use plastics affect our planet. From surprising facts to an interactive “plastic fashion” experience, students will discover simple ways to make a real difference right away. The program ends with an eco-friendly craft to take home—because saving the Earth can start with one small choice!
Stacey Giaquinto is an elementary school teacher with 28 years of experience and a passion for inspiring students to make a difference in their communities. She is the author of a children’s book based on her real-life experiences, telling the story of kids who rally their neighbors to help clean up a local brook. Using the book as a springboard for action, Stacey created Litter Awareness, an engaging educational program that teaches children about the consequences of littering and the impact of single-use plastics.
