🌎💙 Our UPK students at Helendale had a hands-on Earth Day celebration filled with learning and fun! Students made flower seed bombs and planted grass seeds to help grow something new, played a “litter” cleanup game using the giant parachute, and created beautiful nature-inspired chalk drawings on the sidewalk. A wonderful day of exploring ways to care for our planet! 🌱🌼#LancersLEAD
