Hi Everyone!
Just a reminder that the March Meet-up for ECE Educators is coming up on Wednesday. See details below:
March Meet-up for Early Childhood Educators
Topic: Engaging Young Children in the Garden
Date: Wednesday, March 27th at 7 PM ET
Join us for a virtual small group discussion sharing ideas for planning developmentally
appropriate garden activities for young children. Bring your favorite activity or garden
adaptation to share as we swap ideas for adapting gardening fun so that it matches the
interests and attention spans of children ages 3 to 5. Open to anyone (teachers,
volunteers, caregivers and more) gardening with kids in ECE settings (i.e., preschools,
Head Starts, daycares, and home).
