About

Based on the Family and Community Learning (FCL) workshop model from PBS, WQED Education has created their own FCL themed model around health and wellness. This model follows the “Eat, Explore, Make, and Share” structure and comes with take-home letters to continue the learning and engagement between caregivers and children. The topics covered in this FCL series are:

  • Nutrition
  • Fitness
  • Healthy Habits
  • Safety
