Let's start by taking a moment to practice gratitude.
What part of nature are you grateful for and why?
What is your favorite outdoor activity and why?
The Reason
The Environmental Impact Kit is a unique kit as it is designed to be kept by YOU. Its focus is on the environment and our personal footprint.
Unpack the Box
Take everything out of the box.
Lay everything out so you can find what you need to build the kit.
Find the Kynd Card
This is for you to spread extra kyndness to someone in your own life. Consider writing a note to a friend, loved one, or colleague that you are grateful for. Address the note and send it in the mail or give it to someone in person.
For each Environmental Impact [+] kit purchased, a tree will be planted with One Tree Planted, an environmental tree planting charity that plants trees in countries around the world. One dollar plants one tree.
Decorate the Canvas Tote
1. Find the following items:
Canvas Tote
Markers
2. Decorate the canvas tote:
Use the enclosed markers to decorate the tote…this bag will accompany you on your shopping trips so style it as you’d like.
This tote is to be used for your own shopping purposes. Instead of asking for a plastic bag, tell them you have your own bag to put your items in.
Make the canvas tote fun and colorful or simple and sweet.
*Tips:
Place a small piece of paper in the tote before decorating. This will prevent the marker from bleeding to the other side.
A bee bath is a simple bee water feeder that you can add to your garden or outdoor space. It’s a way of attracting pollinating guests to your yard over and over again.

Rocks
Additional material (optional)
2. Wash the tray and rocks to be sure they are free from any pesticides.

4. Later, fill the container with water and place it outside near plants or a garden. Refill it frequently to continuously attract bees to your space.

Reusable Straw
Most plastic straws simply break into ever-smaller particles, releasing chemicals into the soil, air, and water that are harmful to animals, plants, people, and the environment.
