Preschool Programming

Preschool Programming:

Our Preschool Programming is designed for ages 3-5. We focus on environmental education themed topics that can be modified to teach any science subject. Each program is FREE and done in your classroom and on your school grounds. The programs are 45 minutes to 1 hour and include an outside component. Some potential* subjects are:
