The wildly popular, proven, and engaging Learn, Grow, Eat & Go (LGEG) curriculum for elementary students is based on an evidence-based model combining integrated learning, a student-led garden project, nutrient-dense food exposures, and increasing physical activity! Because of the success and popularity of that original LGEG curriculum, the new Early Childhood LGEG was developed to provide the same impact in pre-kindergarten classrooms!
