Sisters' Choice Recordings and Books - Here's a page that lets you hear a preview of a song or two before you buy. The songs also have activities to accompany them.
Another great song at this site is We're all in this together. This is a wonderful package that has 15 ecology songs for the whole family. The activity page for all of the song kits are on this page.
The activities offer lessons on "things to find out and things to think about."
Be sure and visit this site's page on environmental parodies too. There are some wonderfully easy and meaningful songs for you here.
Earth Songs is a site that you definitely should see! This site has many wonderful resources for Earth Day and Music Education! The categories covered are as follows:
50 Simple Things Kids can do to Save the Earth is full of experiments, facts, and exciting things to do. My students have thoroughly enjoyed the activities in this book.
The Recycler's Handbook (50 simple things you can do to save the Earth) - In the foreword of this book, it states that "Our society conditions us to believe that each of us is insignificant. It's simply not true. When we understand that, we've begun to take control of our lives...and our future. We can no longer afford to treat the Earth and its resources as if they were disposable. Recycling is a fundamental way of affirming this. Literally, we save parts of the planet...but the real power comes from our commitment to cherish and protect our home, now and in the years to come."
