We are running a pilot program here at the North End this summer to combat summer learning loss among kids. Our program will keep kids thinking and having fun while being educational at the same time. If you are reading this, it is likely that you received a flyer :-), so you know the basics of the program.
In addition to the activities and themes on the flyer, food and nutrition will play a large part in what we do. When kids are adjusting recipes, they don't even think of it as math! We'll make our own lunches of course, but we'll also make bread, ice cream, have food tastings, and maybe try some mystery fruits and vegetables.
It's going to be a great summer, and I encourage you to call if you have any questions. We are limited to 10 kids, and we don't know what the response will be, so if you are interested, the sooner you call or write, the more likely it will be that we have a spot for your child (or children).
I can be reached via email at mcormier@alfondyouthcenter.org, or by phone at 873-5686.
