When you stop to think about it, there's one thing all of humankind has in common: Earth! It's the single place we all call home. Now more than ever, it's important to care for and celebrate our shared home, and Earth Day calls on us to do just that. And as parents, it's our responsibility to nurture in our children a healthy respect and appreciation for the natural world.

So, this year, amidst planting your garden, taking a nature walk, or swimming in the ocean, take time to round up the best photos you've taken of the beauty all around you and share them to the ‘gram. All of those camera roll photos of your kiddos making sandcastles and your pups laying in the grass — or however your family enjoys this magical place — deserve to see the light of social media.

To help you find the right words to accompany your love letter to our globe, lean on these puns, lyrics, quotes, and other earthly sayings.
