March Programs And Events Announced For Staten Island Children's Museum

The Staten Island Children's Museum has announced their upcoming performances for the month of March. 

The SI Children's Museum says: "Good nutrition is as easy as A, B, C—vitamins A, B & C, that is! March is Good Nutrition Month and with our delicious vitamin-packed recipes, kids will learn that eating healthy is not just easy, but fun and colorful too! Teddy Bears in need of some TLC can bring them to the Museum on March 10 for our Teddy Bear Clinic, presented by Richmond University Medical Center. Medical professionals will teach kids about injury prevention and diagnose, bandage and mend injured Teddy Bears! What do worms have to do with nutrition? They improve the soil where we grow our fruits and vegetables! Meet Andrew and his worms at a fun, wriggly presentation by the NYC Compost Project."
