Description

With grandparents (baby boomers age 45-63) caring for 34% of young children, 'Learning Through the Seasons' helps parents, grandparents, and other caregivers make a real difference in the lives of children they love while making their own lives less stressful. Why? Because they learn to create and manage productive fun and learning activities that keep active children interested and involved.
A recent educational study compared children entering kindergarten in 2008 with those in the 1950’s. Children now have ONE HALF the vocabulary of those 1950’s children and that statistic is continuing through middle school. (High school was not studied.)

Fortunately, caregivers of preschool children can turn this around by doing these simple 'Learning Through the Seasons' activities using materials found around the home and community to increase interaction between adults and children. Each activity is carefully designed to increase vocabulary development so important for reading and school success.

Grandparents Teach, Too, a non profit organization is supported (not financially) by the Northern Michigan University Center for Economic Education and Entrepreneurship, the NMU School of Education, and the Upper Peninsula (of Michigan) Children’s Museum , the Upper Peninsula of Michigan chapter of the National Association for the Education of Young Children, and the Upper Peninsula Of Michigan chapter of Parenting Awareness of Michigan.
