PVHA-4H

To Make the Best, Better

The Cloverbuds Club

 At our last meeting, the Cloverbuds learned about Nature Fun. 

 We spray painted the shapes of leaves, sticks, and plants onto paper, and we made a spider web while we learned about the different things that are made from plants.  (For those of you who made it home without your painting--ask me next time, it's waiting for you in the 4-H Supply Closet.)  We also continued getting ready for the play!

 

At our next meeting, May 11

 We'll be making the board that will represent our Cloverbud Club at the Bangor State Fair this summer!  Bring lots of ideas with you for what it should look like.  What were your favorite things that we did this year?  What did you learn?  We'll talk about it and make the board at our next meeting!

When does the CloverBuds Club meet?

We meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month in Bangor during the PVHA4H meetings from 1:00 - 3:30 pm.

What do the CloverBuds do?

The primary goal of the program is to promote children's healthy development; mentally, physically, socially and emotionally.

At 1:00 we begin our meeting by signing in and socializing with friends.  At 1:15 we start our announcements  and say our pledges.   Then it is time to start our activities, which are planned using weekly themes from the CloverBud Curriculum developed by the Ohio State University Extension. There are a variety of stories, games, activities, experiments and crafts revolving around a theme covered that week.  We also have gym time for the kids to exercise and play, and a snack break.
