Kinder-gardeners: The Power of Nature to Nurture


Eat Smart, It's in the Garden grant recipient, Central Child Development Center in Rock Hill, recently had an article published about their successful school garden program. In an article for Exchange magazine (http://www.childcareexchange.com/), Dr. Linda Hutchinson-Harmon writes about the wonderful partnership between the pre-schoolers with special needs, four year old kindergarten students and middle schoolers in the Rebound Alternative Program. Together, these students, teachers and parents have been able to create a great gardening program where reading, measuring, biology, nutrition activities and so much can be learned by all participants.
