March into Spring with EdConnect: Urban Spring Clean & Community Events

Spring is a time of renewal and fresh beginnings, and what better way to embrace the season than with a deep clean of our homes and communities? At EdConnect, we’re excited to share our Urban Spring Clean campaign, filled with weekly tips to help you declutter, refresh, and explore while preparing for an impactful season ahead.

🏁 The Great Declutter Race

Make spring cleaning a family game! Set a timer and see who can fill a donation box first. It’s a fun way to clear space and teach kids about giving back—plus, a clutter-free home helps you focus better at the Ignite Clayton Community Conversation.

​🧸 Little Organizers, Big Impact

Give kids ownership of their space with bins, labels, and simple systems. It builds responsibility, boosts confidence, and improves focus at school.

🌱 Eco-Warrior Clean-Up

Ditch harsh chemicals! Use vinegar, baking soda, and lemon for a safer, greener clean. Support educational programs that promote environmental awareness.

🏙️ Urban Explorers: Spring Edition

Turn your city into a classroom! Museums, parks, and festivals spark curiosity and learning beyond school. Ignite Clayton connects families, educators, and advocates - helping more families access enriching experiences.
