Hi there, I work at a childcare center and my job is to come up with in-house field trips that are thematic to our curriculum of the month. The month of May is gardening & I am looking to find someone to come in and do a presentation with our kids!

New Creations in Brooklyn Park, we have toddlers and up if you could do all of those ages. If not, preschool (3-5). 
We have about 40-60 preschoolers depending on the day & about 40 toddlers. I would love an hour if possible.
