The Can Do Kids did such a fabulous job on this Art Project. We are entering these Earth Day projects in the Ogden Nature Center Art Contest. Good Luck to each of you! I know I am bias, but I absolutely love all of these! They give out Grand Prize, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place awards. These artistic projects will be displayed in the Ogden Nature Center from April 16th to June 3rd 2011. The winners will be invited to an awards program on Earth Day April 16 at 10 am.
