UNITED WAY BORN LEARNING TRAIL
A Community Development Project presented by: United Way of Harvey & Marion Counties and Kansas Horizon Foundation.
The Born Learning Trail is a series of 10 interactive, colorful, and educational signs designed by the United Way to create, fun, active learning opportunities for young children and their families in public parks or walking paths. These trails promote early literacy, language, and motor skills through simple, interactive, bilingual (English/Spanish) games that encourage parents to engage with their children while outdoors.
