Stop! Learn! Play!
Born Learning is an innovative public engagement campaign that helps parents, caregivers and communities create quality early learning opportunities for young children. A born learning trail contains 10 (12″ x 24″) colorful and interactive signs with activities for adults to engage in with young children to turn an outdoor trip into a fun learning experience. Trails signs provided in English and Spanish (other languages may be available upon request). Stop! Learn! Play! encourages parents and caregivers to follow the child’s lead, building the child’s curiosity and confidence, and reinforcing the learning already under way.
The Opportunity
United Way is looking for community partners to help install new trails throughout Martin County. A Born Learning Trail may be constructed at mutually identified parks, schools, child care centers, libraries, community gathering spaces or other accessible family-friendly locations.
