It's Easy Being Green!

Preschoolers enrolled in LVCC's Fowler Center (Bethlehem) spent a beautiful spring morning learning about gardening and recycling.

In true eco-fashion, the class used a resource that the center has plenty of -- recycled baby food containers -- to plant seeds for their garden! The students are hoping to watch their seeds grow into yummy tomatoes, peppers, carrots, green beans, and basil!

When they sprout, the children will replant their fruits, veggies and herbs in a garden next to their playground -- where they plan to re-purpose the sides of old cribs for fencing!

Week of the Young Child

LVCC centers are celebrating Week of the Young Child! The Week of the Young Child (WOYC) is an annual celebration sponsored by the National Association for the Education of Young Children. The purpose of the WOYC is to focus public attention on the needs of young children and their families and to recognize the early childhood programs and services that meet those needs. LVCC centers will be celebrating with activities, events and special guests -- like Officer Sam (left) who visited students at LVCC's Fowler Center (Bethlehem) to tell students about his important job.
