Preschoolers at The Goddard School in Meadow Brook Corporate Park last week participated in a variety of environmental activities as part of their celebration of Earth Week.
The children planted gardens, participated in a scavenger hunt for components of the Earth, learned about insects, played recycling games and participated in a “lights out” hour during which all non-essential lighting was shut off.
The projects were designed to foster creativity and imagination while giving the children an opportunity to learn about recycling and preserving the world around them, school officials said.
