June 2021 Zero Waste Feature

In honour of June being National Indigenous History Month, this month’s Zero Waste feature is the amazing Spring Activity Book from the TRACKS Youth Program. Click here to order it via the online GreenUP Store.

Back by popular demand, the TRACKS Spring Activity Book offers a variety of pen-to-paper activities as well as invitations to learn on the land. These books will engage your learners with integrated sciences, focusing on Anishinaabe understandings of this pivotal time of year.

The activities in the book are intended for kids between the ages of 6-12, with the assumption that younger kids may need more help from an adult.
