CYCLE Kids

Kim Raubenheimer - Friday, October 15, 2010

Cycle and learn.  Children enrolled in CYCLE Kids learn the answers to such mysteries as why bicycles stay up, how gears and chains multiply their energy when they pedal, and how to check air pressure in tires. In food science experiments, they make butter to learn about fat, and use magnets to learn about iron. They learn how to calculate their heart rates, how to eat for energy, and how to make healthy food choices.

CYCLE Kids students learn to respect the environment, both natural and man made. To ensure CYCLE Kids programs work with each schools particular environment, our staff meets with teachers, volunteers, and community organizations.
To learn more about how you can get CYCLE Kids in your neighborhood, or if you would like to help them help others, e-mail them at info@cyclekids.org, or visit them at www.cyclekids.org.

Kim Raubenheimer - Saturday, June 20, 2009
Why do I need to drink milk?  What is calcium?

Your children will learn the answers to questions like that and more when they visit
the Boston Children's Musuem. 

"Kid Power"  is one of  the current exhibits they have for kids and parents to learn
about healthy fuel for the body and why it is important.  A fun learning time for the whole family.

Check out the Boston Children's Museum for information to plan your visit.
