What are you doing to celebrate Energy Awareness Month? Each year, the U.S. Department of Energy designates October as Energy Awareness Month. During the month, many schools undertake energy efficiency and conservation activities. Using energy wisely makes sense – both for the environment and for economics. Learn some energy saving tips to cut costs from utility bills. Click here > https://conta.cc/33Hgkxz
October is Energy Awareness Month aimed at promoting the importance of energy for our sustainability and environmental well-being. This national effort provides an opportunity to help your kids understand the concept of energy, and the role energy plays in the world around them. Fostering strong connections with energy and technology can create appreciation for the ways energy is a part of their lives, and helps them be mindful of the need for energy conservation to ensure future well-being. Check out some great resources to help educate all ages with Science, Art, Reading and even Physical Activities. #EnergyAwarenessMonth

Start with these easy Thanksgiving crafts for kids — some of them are simply ways to keep them busy while you get work done, and others double as festive decorations and centerpieces.
