Just in time to celebrate our Earth! Earth Day was Thursday, but we don't have to stop celebrating!
To help celebrate the new release – and Mother Earth, Anchor Bay has partnered with the Alliance for Community Trees (ACT). For every “Wubbzy Goes Green” DVD sold, Anchor Bay will donate $1 to ACT to help support the planting of trees in playgrounds and schoolyards across the country! The special tree-planting initiative “sprouts” on April 1 and continues through May 31, 2010.
And to further ”plant the seeds” of green-themed consciousness among the budding environmentalists in your family, following are some tips and cool “tree trivia” inspired by “Wubbzy Goes Green” and ACT:
* Take along washable cups or travel mugs instead of disposables.
* Turn off the faucet while brushing your teeth.
* Volunteer with community organizations that plant trees like the Alliance for Community Trees!
Trees make for thriving children!
More facts about trees!
Cleaner air: Trees help trap and remove tiny particles of soot and dust, which otherwise damage human lungs, and tree root networks filter contaminants in soils producing clean water. Four million trees would save $20 million in annual air pollution cleanup!***
Energy saver: The cooling effects of trees can save millions of energy dollars! Three to four shade trees located strategically around a house can cut summer cooling costs by 30-50%!***
Healthier children: Performing activities in green settings can reduce children’s Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms.**

I was sent a copy of the new DVD Wubbzy Goes Green. As always I popped it in the DVD player and watched along with my almost 3 year old who LOVES Wubbzy! I think it got both of us in the mood to plant our new flower and veggie seeds, as well as take care of our Earth! A great DVD, full of inspiration and fun!
