Celebrate Green! Creating Eco-Savvy Holidays, Celebrations and Traditions for the Whole Family is a long needed book because of the focus of being green during family holidays, celebrations and traditions. Often time when a person thinks of the concept of being or going "Green", it is usually applied to the daily living life style by making choices that are considered "Green".

Authors and mother and daughter team Lynn Colwell and Corey Colwell–Lipson write about how Celebrate Green! Creating Eco-Savvy Holidays, Celebrations and Traditions for the Whole Family began with the concept of "Green Halloween" making Halloween a healthy yet green celebration by being Earth friendly.

The mother and daughter team also remind everyone about the basic 3R's: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle which proves that if we did follow the 3R's , we are already on the "Green" track. Colwell and Colwell-Lipson give some excellent ideas on what kind of products and activities should be done, for example during Easter, they remind readers to purchase a carton of eggs in recycled material. Not only do they personalize each holiday with examples of their own lives, they also give ideas on how to do activities or traditions like "How to Dye Eggs Naturally".

If you are not familiar with "Green" terms, there is a glossary in the back of the book for you to learn or use as reference. A list of websites that offer great resources to the theme of this book is also provided. A couple of pages are provided for you to write notes and ideas while you are using Celebrate Green! Creating Eco-Savvy Holidays, Celebrations and Traditions for the Whole Family. I write using because you will be tempted to start the ideas at the same time while reading.

Lynn Colwell and Corey Colwell-Lipson are mother and daughter and co-authors of Celebrate Green! Creating Eco-Savvy Holidays, Celebrations and Traditions for the Whole Family. The book can be purchased at www.CelebrateGreen.NET and on Amazon, A Toy Garden and Village Green Gifts.
