Don’t forget your well-child yearly exam!

A yearly visit is an important element of your child’s health care, as recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics and your provider at Partners in Pediatrics. Well-child visits (or check-ups) are important, even when children are doing well. Well-child check-ups will help to keep your child healthy.

Basic Drawing

 Grades K-5 Why is it that your friend is “artistic” and you are not? It may be because your friend is using a different part of the brain than you are. Your friend can “see” things differently than you can because they are looking at the world in terms of shapes, lines, colors, and the relationships between them. With this week-long camp, you will learn to see and interpret things using an observational technique that allows you to translate the three-dimensional world around you into a two-dimensional drawing, just like a visual artist.

In addition, many of our school gardens produce fruits and vegatables that keep our students nourished and eating healthy.

Do you have a green thumb? You don’t have to be in KIDS Club, WISE Guys or SURGE to participate. Gardening is a great activity for all ages. Contact the Edina Volunteer Program at volunteer@edinaschools.org or call (952) 848-4926 to learn how you can get involved. Families are also welcome.
