Sustainability in Summit

At Mountain Top Explorium, we prioritize the ongoing education of sustainable practices and environmental stewardship. Thanks to funding support from the Copper Environmental Foundation, we’re excited to visit your child’s preschool classroom to facilitate sustainability focused lessons. Following our program be sure to ask your child; What is another way to use our trash?

​

Our curriculum, inspired by Jen Greene’s children's book "Why Should I Recycle?", serves as a foundation to teach students about the landfill, recycling, and composting. These activities not only teach the importance of recycling and sustainable practices in an accessible and enjoyable manner, but they also support essential physical development skills.
