The Learning Never Stops!

When does the learning stop?

Never! Especially for these 10 educators that took Irvine’s Growing Up WILD & Project Learning Tree Early Childhood educator workshop. This workshop is a great way to learn activities to educate children at a young age about the environment, and how to get the kids outside in nature! The group of educators ranged from Pre-School Directors, Naturalists, Pre-K Teachers, Environmental Awareness Teachers, and Infant Preschools. The teachers worked together to create, engineer, learn, and have fun!
