Nature for Everyone

Summer is coming. What are your kids doing to keep busy? The local libraries offer a number of interesting and free programs. For our family the programs Emily Kenny does for the Green Hills Public Library are required family time.

Shortened to M4E, Emily runs an organization called Multidisciplinary Education for the Environment. She's a lot more fun than the name suggests.

In June Emily is running programs called:

• I can eat that?
• Where does my food come from? 
• The Green Team
• Naturally Edible

Each one-hour program engages children in a way that is interactive and educational. They are having so much fun that the kids don't even realize they are learning.

We're such big fans of Miss Emily that we hired her to run a program for our Brownies Troop. To find out more about M4E and their programs in the Palos area and elsewhere, visit their website ME4E.org.
