the world is not a trash can!

I love kids. I love my job... most days. Today was one of those days. :) We all ventured outside (before it poured down rain!) to pick up trash on the nature trail and around our playground. Tuesday is Earth Day, so this was our little Pre-K contribution to the Earth. While picking up trash, one of my girls said, "this isn't a trash can!" I said, "you're right, the world is not a trash can." For the rest of the morning, the class went around picking up trash and repeating our mantra, "the world is not a trash can!" It made my day. :) This is a picture of how it makes us feel when we see all the trash on the ground. (hehe)
