I love NPR. I love Celebrate Green. I don’t love birthdays so much (all that work) but I know my son Cedar loves them. In any case, smoosh NPR, Celebrate Green, and birthday parties together and you get a killer interview with Celebrate Green authors Corey Colwell-Lipson and Lynn Colwell plus regular mama contributor to NPR Jelene Ivey about how to plan a low-cost, eco-friendly, imaginative birthday party for your kids.
Some of the handy tips include:
- A cardboard box maze.
- Buying thrift store plates and cups instead of paper then re-donating them when the party is over (just as cheap as paper but not disposable!).
- Nature flower fun for a little girl’s green party.
- Ideas for a boy’s green birthday party.
- The best invites for a green birthday party.
- How parents make the most difference by being able to include a fun factor.
- What to do about the obnoxious goodie bags.
