Blue Peter - Six Badges of Summer

Blue Peter have launched six new badges. Each week there is a different colour badge, linked to a different topic. The first is green week - linked to the environment and outdoors.

The campaign is being run to help keep you busy this summer, and you'll be seeing lots of things about it throughout June and July across CBBC.

As part of the campaign, you'll get the chance to get your hands on your very own Blue Peter Badges- starting with the show's green badge in Green Week, which is all about the environment, nature and looking after the planet.

Follow the link to have a look on the website for tips on how you can take part and maybe help the environment too.

You can download a wall chart  to keep track of your Six Badges of Summer progress or apply for a badge. Don't forget to let us know what you're doing by uploading your pictures and videos of your creations via Seesaw.
