"An understanding of the natural world and what's in it is a source of not only a great curiosity but great fulfillment." —David Attenborough
Our favorite month is finally here, and we are ready to celebrate. If you're familiar with Bootyland Kids and our style, you know how deep and true our love for the planet we walk on truly is. As April rolls in with its undoubtable Spring feeling but still indecisive weather, we are thinking of our dear Earth and how we can celebrate her in a way that's true to our Sustainability mission.
While we plan on sharing more on our Sustainability efforts and review with customers, we are also focusing on how communities in the greater Seattle area are getting ready to celebrate our Mother. We have curated a list of kid- and family-friendly Earth Day events and celebrations in the area, in the hopes our community will enjoy them! Most of them are free and suitable for all ages!
