NAEYC Competition Winner Announced

Last week we attended the NAEYC Annual Conference and Expo in Nashville, where early childhood educators from around the world gathered to connect, collaborate, and learn together. It was a fantastic event!

NAEYC's Annual Conference is designed for all early childhood professionals, including classroom teachers, center directors, administrators, and the leaders who mentor, prepare, and support them. The conference is a must-attend for those who want to stay up-to-date with the latest developments in the field. The Early Childhood Education Expo had over 250 exhibitors and took place over three days.

We were excited to introduce the concept of outdoor musical instruments to early childhood educators and encouraged them to participate in our giveaway competition for a chance to win a Rainbow Trio Ensemble. We received nearly 500 entries, and we are thrilled to announce that the winner of the competition was Claire Renee Giard from the White Earth Child Care Program located in Ogema, MN.

Claire was thrilled to have won and was eager to share the news with her director and colleagues. Keep an eye out for a case study early next year, where we catch up with Claire to learn how the instruments are being used and enjoyed.
