In this week's Talk of the Town, extension agent Barbara Addison talks about the Cloverbud Club, an opportunity for young 4-Hers to build important skills for their future as 4-H club members and competitors.
In 4-H Cloverbud Club settings, adult and teen volunteers serve as leaders to help children do all kinds of learning activities. The children are provided an opportunity to learn to be together, share, have fun, and gain some experience socializing all in a non-competitive, friendly atmosphere. The club meets to study fun topics of interest such as space, small animals, foods and nutrition, gardening, crafts, pets and much more.
The 4-H Cloverbud program is ideal to help children improve their life skills by sharing, learning, and achieving. 4-H is the nation’s largest youth development organization, serving more than 6.5 million young people across America. Finney County 4-H is the youth development program of Kansas State University Cooperative Extension. To find out more about our programs contact the Finney County Extension, 501 South 9th St., or call 272-3670, or email fi@ksre.ksu.edu. Visit www.finney.ksu.edu. for more information.
