Technology is for the birds!

The Hartshorn Arboretum in Short Hills is gearing up for a fabulous 2009 season.

If you don’t know of it alreadys, they have wonderful environmental education programs for children ages 2 1/2 through 12.

Jennifer Ward the author of “I Love Dirt” writes that “study after study indicates time outdoors in a natural setting is not simply a nice-to-have activity…it is a vital element for healthy childhood development.”

Yes! I could not agree more! The Arboretum is buzzing with activities this Spring. In April, the Arboretum will celebrate National Environmental Education Week with both adult and family programs.
