About the Provider
Something to Grow On Educational Center, Inc. (STGO) provides developmentally-appropriate programs for children aged 6 months to 5 years. STGO believes that each child is unique and therefore requires a program that stimulates their individuality.
The center provides activities that enable children to explore and enhance the child’s intellectual, creative, social, emotional, and physical development.
Something to Grow On has a Children's Garden that helps children learn about nutritious eating and where these foods come from. The children have harvested: tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplant, spagetti squash and sage. The children then took the harvest and prepared a meal via a cooking activity.
