Preschool Programs

 

Classroom Visit
Erie County Waste Reduction Program is available for classroom visits to both public and private preschools in Erie County. The staff can do any of the presentations shown below or adapt them to meet the needs of the preschool. There is no cost for the presentation or materials.

 

Blue Bug's Beach Party

The classroom is covered in trash! The students hear how Blue Bug picks up his beach and then hold a litter pickup in their own classroom.

Big Book Activity 
Where does garbage go? Children discover where their garbage goes after it is picked up by the garbage truck. Each child colors a page of the story for a classroom book.


Paper Making
Children learn about recycling and the papermaking process. Each child touches and molds paper pulp to make their very own take-home project.

 

Lucky the Ladybug Visit


Lucky the Ladybug is the Ohio Department of Natural Resource's litter prevention mascot and Ohio's First Lady of Litter Prevention. Lucky is also the centerpiece of our litter prevention campaign for young children. 

Lucky's mission is to help children understand the importance of not littering and keeping Ohio clean. She loves meeting with children and encouraging them to make a difference in their communities by volunteering to help clean up littered areas and reminding others not to litter.

Lucky the Ladybug has found a permanent home in Erie County and would be happy to visit public and private preschools in Erie County with her message of litter prevention.
