Great program! Kids get involved and are motivated! They make great connections to their own life and are excited to share the information with their families! The information ties in perfectly with our Science and Social Studies curriculum! The presenters are TOP NOTCH, and the program gives the kids (information and backpack) AND the teachers (gift card for classroom supplies) great incentives!
