Best Outdoor Education Programs!

For the People and Kids, Inc. was named the Best of Westchester 2024 Winner for Best Kids Outdoor Education Programs! This prestigious honor highlights our commitment to providing enriching, memorable experiences for children and families in our communities.

Thank you to the incredible families who trust us with their children’s growth and learning, and to our amazing learners—we love and appreciate you!

Exciting News for 2025!

We’ve been nominated again, this time for Best Summer Day Camp and Best After School Program in the Best of Westchester 2025 Awards. Help us make it two years in a row!

Your unwavering support fuels our passion to inspire, empower, and create exceptional programs for kids. Together, let’s continue to make a difference in our community.

🎉 LET’S DO IT AGAIN FOR 2025! 🎉

Give kids the opportunity to take ownership of their gardening experience with their very own tools! Having their own Garden and Trowel Set helps children develop responsibility and fosters a sense of stewardship towards nature. By using tools that are the right size and made to last, they’ll be empowered to dig, plant, and care for their little patches of nature.

These lightweight, durable tools are designed specifically for young hands, encouraging hands-on learning and building a deeper connection to the environment. Gardens tools go home with the kids, and they are responsible for keeping them clean, and remembering to bring their tools back to class, further instilling a sense of responsibility and commitment to their learning journey.

We also offer an option for just garden gloves if you already have the tools, along with an optional waist apron for added convenience, keeping tools close while working in the garden.

Whether planting flowers, growing veggies, or exploring the wonders of nature, these tools will inspire responsibility and a love for the environment in every young gardener! 🌿✨
