- Starting a home garden is simple. You can simply grow crops like tomatoes or lettuce in your back yard or kitchen. You will have the joy in growing and preparing your own food that you have produced. You will have organic fruits and vegetables to share with your family and friends.
2. Toys-
- All children have the right to play and have fun, so why not make it Zero Waste. There are many simple solutions including switching out plastic or disposable toys, purchase wooden or fabric toys. This will last longer and stay stronger. For example, kids these days are obsessed with LOL dolls. These dolls come in a lot of plastic packaging and in the end, you end up with an even smaller plastic toy.
3. Tooth Brush -
You may not think it but toothbrushes have a very negative impact on the environment. From the plastic handle to bristle it screams plastic. You can make a Zero Waste toothbrush a very fun and interactive activity by purchasing a bamboo toothbrush with plant-based bristles that can be decorated in any creative way. After all, you have the right to good quality health care.
