Earth Kit from earthkits.com

One person can make a difference– especially if that person is a child. That’s the philosophy behind EarthKits.com. The idea is to educate and excite some of Earth’s youngest inhabitants so that they’ll continue a long life of environmentally-friendly living.

The site’s signature product is the Earth Kit for Kids. (The Earth Kit for Adults is on its way.) There’s a deluxe version and a mini version. The deluxe kit comes with lots of items including a 16 oz. BPA-free “Kids Go Green” spill-proof water bottle by Camelbak, a “Kids Go Green” organic cotton T-shirt, a “Green at Heart” wristband and a seeded download card. Kids can download two songs for free and then plant the card and watch the seeds grow into a plant. All of the products will come in a cardboard box that has been made from recycled materials. For under $50 you’ll feel good knowing you’re helping the environment one child at a time.
