Learning Landscapes @ Home
This project developed in response to the coronavirus pandemic and the needs of families with young children to fin ways to support their children’s learning and development at home, without screens. It involved crowdsourcing dozens of learning activity ideas from local families, creation of family-friendly text in English and Spanish describing those activities, and a design process led by the Family Advisory Board and a Black-owned design firm.
In 2021, UB began distributing thousands of Learning Landscapes @Home kits that consist of activity cards, books, and arts and crafts supplies to local families directly and through our Provider Action Team.
Included in Kit: UB FAB Developed Activity Cards, Talking is Teaching: T-Shirt/Onesie, Free family pass to the Brooklyn Children's Museum, 6-8. age-appropriate books, and a MariBox with arts and craft supplies!
