Happy Earth Day!
This Friday, 4/22, we celebrated Earth Day. Our playgroup met at Bernheim to experience the Earth Day concert, and it was a blast! Thank you to Nikki for leading playgroup and for all who came to enjoy the fun.
On this Earth Day weekend I also wanted to take time to say THANK YOU to all of our LEAP families.
Thank you for investing in your child's outdoor education, which in turn is investing in the future of our planet.
I'll explain! Studies have shown that children who develop a RELATIONSHIP with their environment and natural world at a YOUNG age are more likely to make efforts to PROTECT that environment as they grow up. Our classes are intentionally PLACE-BASED, meaning every week children interact with nature in the SAME location, helping them to develop that relationship with that space.
So, THANK YOU for investing in your child's outdoor education, which is really investing in the future of our Mother Earth, for all of our children!
