This year, each club with Cloverbuds will receive the new Big Book of Cloverbud Activities and Choose and Tell Cards through funds from the Muskingum County 4-H Endowment.
Ohio 4-H’s Cloverbud Design Team also has additional resources available for those who are looking for new activities on the state website. Check out the 4-H Cloverbud Connections blog, old editions of the PDF newsletter, and the Click It, Print It, Do It Activity pages!
And don’t forget…we have six Cloverbud Activity Kits that can be checked out from our office. We ask that you keep them no longer than a week.
