Make your own World Environment Day stamp!

World Environment Day (WED) is a day in which the environmentalism is promoted and pollution is fought. It is observed the week of June 5 each year. World Environment Day was established by the United Nations in 1972. World Environment Day is hosted in a different city each year. Mexico City is hosting the 2009 World Environment Day. These crafts projects are for preschool, kindergarten and elementary school children. The crafts use materials found around the house, like egg cartons, cardboard, paper, boxes, string, crayons, paint, glue, etc. See a page about color mixing to see how to combine paint to make all the colors of the rainbow.
