 Growing Up Wild:  Exploring Nature with Young Children is a brand new 
 earlychildhood education activity guide that builds on children's sense of 
 wonder about nature.  Written for educators of children ages 3-7, it includes 
 crafts, art projects, music, science, reading, math connections and much more.  
 Participate in a variety of interactive, hands-on, fun-filled activities and gain 
 experience and skills helpful for taking children outside to explore the natural 
 world. Explore early spring on a seasonal scavenger hunt.  Learn about frogs and 
 toads, birds, wildflowers and pond life.  Meet Herman the Worm and learn simple ways 
 to bring live animals into your teaching while composting.  This professional 
 development workshop is great for teachers, camp counselors, child care providers, home 
 school parents and other educators. The workshop will be taught by Northfield 
 Mountain's Kim Noyes and Beth Bazler and Karen Eldred, a Pre-School Teacher at 
 Buckland-ShelburneElementary.  Growing Up Wild is correlated to the National Association 
 for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) Standards and the Head Start Domains.
