Blowing in the Wind
Hanging your clothes out to dry saves energy
Hey Green Kids!
Mother’s and Father’s Day may have come and gone, but it’s never too late to help out with the household chores. In the summer, you can get the sun and wind to pitch in too by hanging your clothes outside to dry. Sun and wind are both renewable resources, which means they will never run out! Line drying one load of laundry prevents about 3.35 pounds of C02 emissions by saving the electricity it would take to run the dryer.

What a great tip! My little one loves helping with laundry and this is just another way for him to help out.

My daughter likes helping me with the laundry, I think this is something that she would really like to do. Plus, I imagine that watching the clothes blow in the breeze might keep her occupied, also!
