A Journey Begins…A child flies to outer space. She is in an

astronaut costume and fully convinced she is one.During her journey into outer space, she reachesthe International Space Station, and shares herstories with her fellow international peers as theyorbit around earth. This child is exploring theworld around her and there are no boundaries to what she can do and no obstacles to her imagination. We are born to be creative.

This experience and hundreds like it takeplace daily at The New Children’s Museum Preschool.

Fostering Creativity. . . The Children’s Museum Preschool has a

strong tradition of fostering creativity by givingevery child a wide array of rich multi-sensory experiences to experiment and make discoveries.Children explore with magnets, cultivate plantsfrom seeds, observe live animals from the museum, and experience outer space.

High Standards. . .The high educational standards of The

New Children's Museum Preschool will prepare your child for lifelong learning success.Guided by licensed, caring teachers—and with acurriculum backed by Connecticut’s early learning guidelines—children delve into the sciences, literacy, arts and humanities in a classroom setting and by visiting the museum's seven interactive exhibit spaces, wildlife sanctuary, planetarium and Roaring Brook Nature Center.

Immersive Learning ClassroomsWithin our large, sunlit preschool classrooms, children explore and discover

the wonders and processes of the surrounding world. These bright, colorful spacesprovide a familiar and comfortable home environment that is ideally suited to theirneeds.

The children come to see the entire museum as their classroom. Each exhibitis designed specifically to be a learning device. By being engaged with the museumour preschoolers have the opportunity to learn from and build relationships withour experienced museum staff. Learning is richer and deeper if it’s authentic, resulting in the information retention of our students.

Our MissonThe New Children’s Museum Preschool inspires creativity, promotes self

discovery, and nurtures an appreciation for lifelong learning. Our staff is committedto providing the highest quality early learning experience and the development of the individual child in areas of creativity, critical thinking, problem solving, independence, confidence, compassion, and empathy. We honor the child's senseof wonder and natural curiosity by providing hands-on experiences in our museum,classrooms as well as outdoors in the natural world at Roaring Brook Nature Center.

TRAVEL

Recently, a global trend has caught fire, offering outdoor enthusiasts an upgrade on rest and recreation. It’s called “glamping”, a new word for

a new kind of travel, defined as glamorous camping. When you’re glamping, there’s no tent to pitch, no sleeping bag to unroll, no fire to build. Whether in a tent, yurt, airstream, hut, villa or treehouse, glamping is a way to experience the great outdoors without sacrificing luxury. For those of you who have been on safari in Africa and stayed in a tented safari camp you will have somewhat of an idea of what it’s all about. Glamping is a fusion of glamour and camping and has emerged globally and has come across the Atlantic over the last decade. Both independent properties and global hospitality brands have capitalized on a jettisoning demand for travelers who want to experience the positive aspects of camping without the ‘uncomfortable’ neg-atives. Glamping pivots on a high level of service that focuses on complete comfort

for guests. The amenities found at glamp-ing destinations far exceed anything that recreational campers experience. Glamping options run the gamut from tents, to over the water bungalows, to huts, pods, cubes, tree-houses, airstreams, jungle lodges and more. Let me give you a little insight into the accommodations. Tents: Glamping tents are a far cry from the do-it-yourself tent in a bag. They offer amenities like comfortable beds and in some cases ensuite bathroom facilities. Everything is set up for you. There is no tent to pitch. All you have to do is relax and enjoy the unique experience provided by these luxury tents. Villas & Huts: Whether you choose overwater glamping huts in the Maldives, a cottage in Indonesia or a beachfront glamping villa in New Zealand or Figi, there is a stellar collection of glamping accom-modations. Staying in a glamping hut or villa will provide you with an opportunity to commune with nature while enjoying pure luxury. Pod & Cubes: Many glamping destina-

tions around the world have come up with unique, yet luxurious eco-friendly pods and cubes to serve as guest accommoda-tions. These glamping pods and cubes give travelers an opportunity to have a singular experience amidst the surrounding nature. From unique eco domes to cubes with an architectural flare, many properties have embraced the glamping concept and created special dwellings unique to their properties. Yurts & Teepees: Along with luxury tents, yurts have always been amongst the most popular glamping accommodations. Yurts were first used by Central Asian no-mads and the design has been resurrected by many properties looking to offer a unique accommodation that doesn’t leave a carbon footprint. Tree-house & Airstreams: Glamp-ing in tree-houses or airstreams are defi-nitely a one-of-a-kind experience. Imagine a luxurious dwelling perched amongst the timbers of Vermont or Switzerland with amenities only matched by the views. Or, imagine taking up residency in a restored vintage Airstream along the Santa Barbara ph

coast. For your next (or first) glamping trip, consider a tree-house or airstream. Eco & Safari Lodges: Glamping lodg-es are the perfect way to experience nature while still having four walls and a ceiling. These unique destinations from Maine to Nepal have carefully constructed the ideal dwellings for their properties, allowing guests to stay in complete luxury while still developing an up-close-and-personal relationship with the surrounding nature. Cabineering: Cabineering is a new travel trend that is now offered by many luxury properties. These luxury cabins give adventure travelers the comforts of home and the special amenities of a luxury hotel in some of the most remote and breathtak-ing areas around the globe. It’s a cozy way to have a memorable, experiential vacation. Glamping has been a burgeoning travel trend in North America for the past eight years with a variety of unique locations and accommodations to choose from. One of my favorites here in the United States is the Resort at Paws Up (http://www.pawsup.com) located in Greenbough, Montana.

This is considered a luxury tent and features five glamping camps that cater to families, couples and groups. Each glamp-ing tent features an en suite bathroom, The Last Best Bed®, chic rustic furnishings, art-adorned walls, electricity, cooling fans, heat and, most importantly, a camping butler! It’s nature served on a silver platter. If you really want to be impressed, take a look at their website although photos can’t

really do it justice. Whether you’re an expe-rienced rider or you’ve never been horse-back riding before, you’ll lay eyes on sight after sight of historical and breathtaking visions during your unforgettable Montana horseback riding excursion. Junior wran-gler programs for kids, customized lessons, cattle work, and roping are available here at Montana’s largest private equestrian center, The Saddle Club at Paws Up. Or try your hand running and sorting cattle with an authentic cattle drive. There is a budget for everyone and glamping resorts are located throughout the United States and around the world. For more information on these and other glamping facilities please contact me at Sanditz Travel. Happy Glamping! n

Lisa Ciotto planted a seed that grew into West Hartford’s “Secret Garden.” As a therapist working in Saint Mary Home’s short-term rehabilitation unit, Lisa sent The Mercy

Community’s administrators a letter in the spring of 2013, asking that something be done about the courtyard facing the Therapy Gym. She explained that the outdoor space’s nine-foot-high cement retaining wall was problematic for residents with low vision, cataracts or macular degeneration: its glare tended to cause confusion about the weather conditions outside, no matter the season. “Over the years,” Lisa wrote, “I have often wished I could find someone who would be willing to paint a mural on that wall that gives life, brightness, and something to start a conversation.” Bill Fiocchetta, president and CEO of The Mercy Community, brought Lisa’s letter to the June 2013 meeting of its Board’s Marketing & Development Committee. Jill Adams, principal/CEO of Adams & Knight in Avon and chair of the committee, remembers the excitement Lisa’s query generated. “We encouraged Bill’s team to draft a request for proposals and to send it to all of the Connecticut artists and arts or-ganizations they could find. A few months later, when we reviewed Tao LaBossiere’s concept, we felt he truly had a vision for

what this could be. Instead of suggesting a painting for a wall, he was offering to build a retreat for our residents,” Jill said. “It’s the very essence of art meeting therapy.” Hartford artist Tao LaBossiere’s winning proposal was called “Everlasting Spring in the Secret Garden.” In the style of trompe l’oeil, it transforms white cement into a stunning stonewall, complete with flora and fauna that slowly, surprisingly reveal themselves. “I wanted something that people could come back to again and again,” Tao said, “each time, finding something they didn’t see when they last looked.” From April until August 2014, Tao and a group of eight assistants brought the courtyard to life with ladybugs, hydrangea, a peacock… and even a bronze sculpture inspired by Frances Hodgson Burnett’s novel The Secret Garden. On August 14, The Mercy Community opened its own “Secret Garden” with a reception celebrating Tao LaBossiere’s artistry and the generosity of lead bene-factors Barbara O. Hetrick, a resident of The McAuley, and Frances B. Sergi and

Family of West Hartford. In his remarks, Bill Fiocchetta explained the importance of seniors – particularly those experienc-ing memory disorders – living with art and engaging in art therapy activities. “Experts in memory care and ther-apeutic recreation are – with increasing frequency – documenting success stories with the use of art therapy. Activities like painting and listening to music can meet with astonishing results among the population living with Alzheimer’s disease and related dementia. Individuals who may not be responsive to social cues or conversation sometimes have visceral reactions when handed a paintbrush or fitted with an iPod. Doctors tell us that as Alzheimers attacks the brain, it often does so in such a way that it sabotages areas like short-term memory first, but will not affect the creative center until much later,” Bill said. He added: “This project has blended our desire to surround those entrusted to our care with the beauty of nature, the beauty of art, and the beauty of science well applied.” n

Archbishop Leonard Blair’s commitment to the mission ofCatholic Charities, both the organization and the prac-tice of Catholic charity, is grounded in his role as head

of the Archdiocese of Hartford. He sees his role as a teacher offaith and paramount to the Catholic faith is charitable goodworks.

We had the pleasure of introducing the Archbishop to ourstaff and spent a recent morning showing him some of our fa-cilities and programs. We couldn’t tell who had more fun, us,the Archbishop or the children. “Knowing how valuable histime is, we were honored he witnessed, first hand, the benefi-ciaries of his programs,” said Chief Executive Officer ofCatholic Charities Lois Nesci.

Since commencing his role as Archbishop in December, hehas spent his time getting to know the charitable outreach ofthe Archdiocese, funded in great part by the Archbishop’s An-nual Appeal.

“I was very impressed with the Hartford Archdiocese,” hesaid. “The Archbishop’s Annual Appeal, for example, is remark-ably generous on the part of Catholic people. That includes awhole array of Catholic Charities outreach services and othercharitable activities. Certainly the people today who are prac-ticing their faith and coming to church have never been moregenerous. Not only with their contributions but also with theirtime and talent.

“Catholic Charities also relies on grants and other help for its work. Archbishop Mansell wasfond of pointing out that after the federal government the Catholic Church is thelargest provider of social servicesin the country,” he added.

Archbishop Blair also considerseducation an integral part of theChurch’s mission, but one thatmany parents find difficult becauseof the cost. The Archbishop’s AnnualAppeal has a tuition assistance pro-gram that helped more than 1700

people last year. There is also Matthew 25, a program ofCatholic Charities, that provides aid to Northwest Catholic andEast Catholic High School students from individuals or foun-dations willing to support four years of education. The programidentifies gifted students and monitors their progress through-out their high school experience.

Early childhood education starts even before children enterformal schools. The Archbishop recently toured the SouthsideFamily Center in Hartford to see the Jumpstart to Kindergartenprogram first hand. It is one of ten such centers in the HartfordArchdiocese that offer activities aimed at enhancing literacy tohelp close the achievement gap by preparing children for suc-cess in school. The key element of the programs is the involve-ment of parents in their children’s education. They also offer aculturally competent and comprehensive approach to the de-velopment and enhancement of the family—one that focuseson activities that reinforce parent-child bonding. Children withspecial needs are also welcome.

“At Catholic Charities,” ArchbishopBlair said, “our goal is to promote thehighest standards of excellence in earlychildhood education as well as tostrengthen the whole family through ad-ditional educational and support serv-ices.” Three hundred and fifty childrenare getting the early childhood educationthey wouldn’t have received if it were notfor Catholic Charities. Parents who oncestruggled when it came to their children’sdevelopment are actively participating intheir education, without the worry ofhaving to pay for preschool.

Archbishop Blair is also committed toassisting recent immigrants resettled inthe Archdiocese. “We want to be very at-tentive to helping them. Since Catholicsin the past were all immigrants, theChurch was an integral part of their inte-gration and success in society and their contribution to society.Certainly with recent immigrants, wewant to be able to do the same,” he said.

The Migration, Refugee and Immi-gration Services program of Catholic

Charities in the Archdiocese has helpedresettle over 6,000 refugees in the Hart-ford area since its inception in 1975. Theprogram sets an employment rate of 75percent within the first four months of arefugee’s arrival.

The program offers comprehensiveimmigration and naturalization supportservices as well as clinical and case man-

agement services to individuals who havesuffered from sexual and/or employmenttrafficking, both domestically and inter-nationally. �

L ately, the gardening “buzz” has been all about edible landscaping. And while many of us have been growing edibles for years (my first gardens were vegetable gardens), not

everyone wants to dig up a piece of the lawn to have a dedicated spot for vegetables. Luckily that’s no longer necessary or even desirable. For one thing, vegetables grow better when they’re pollinated. So, if you already have a spot where you’re growing flowers, that’s a great place for a few vegetables! The same pollinators that visit your flowers will find the edibles and get to work on those too. Keep in mind, vegetables and herbs like the same conditions…the sun. That’s one of the reasons you’ll often find front yard vegetable gardens in New England…so many of us garden under trees in the shade that we have no other place to put a few tomato plants (or other veggies) that we want to grow! Most vegetables need at least six hours of sun to grow and produce well, so the flower border (or other sunny spot) is best. Before you start planting, however, make certain that you treat your flow-er-beds organically this season. Don’t grow your own veggies and herbs if you’re treating with chemicals and pesticides--or if there will be run-off from your lawn or drift from a nearby spray you apply to a shrub. Many are not safe for edibles. Find a different place, or plant in a container. Many folks still think of huge gangly tomatoes and large sprawling trellises of peas, beans and other vegetables when they think of growing edibles so the thought of ‘tucking’ anything like that into a tidy orna-mental border might just bring nightmares.

Nothing can be further from the truth! As with many other plants, the breed-ers have been working on vegetables as well. They have bred them to make them more colorful…not only because this makes them ornamental, but because, in many instances, this makes them more nutritious as well. Peppers come in red, yellow and ‘chocolate’ varieties and the hot varieties have the advantage of sometimes having all three colors on the same plant at the same time. Even tomatoes come in compact packages as anyone who has grown ‘patio’ or container varieties knows. Leaf lettuces make wonderful borders and come in fabulous textures and colors. The leaf colors range from light to very dark green to chartreuse and there are reds, maroons and even speckled varieties. Tuscan Kale, also called ‘Dinosaur Kale’ after the strange appearance it takes on as it is harvested, is a great heirloom vegeta-ble that is also good for you. These can be inter-planted with parsley and other herbs like thyme and oregano, which come in several different leaf colors, as well. Consider planting a whole container of herbs. It will be one of the most carefree containers you’ll ever plant…no deadhead-ing required, except to keep the herbs from flowering…and any cutting back you do will allow you to throw sprigs on the grill, use in summer salads or in quick summer dishes. I’m never without several pots of herbs just outside my kitchen door. There’s a pot of fine-leaf basil…easier for cooking than the larger leafed kind and easier to keep in a pot, a pot of chives for chicken salad, a pot

of parsley for salad, and a mixed pot of other herbs--rosemary, thyme, lavender--which usually changes from year to year. If you prefer to grow something a little different, try some fruit. This year I’m adding blueberry bushes. I’m choosing ‘Tophat’ because it’s supposed to be a self-pollinator, although I’ll add more than one (because I’ll be sharing with the birds). These are dwarf shrubs that should stay about 2’ tall and they have a fabulous red color in the fall--the color is almost as red as burning bush. I already have alpine strawberry plants in several places. These are tiny strawber-ries--not even dime sized--but delicious. I highly recommend them. Even apple trees have come down to size. About ten years ago, breeders came up with something called ‘columnar’ apples. The trees grow straight up and down, in a column. You do need two for cross pollination but each will stay under ten feet tall and five feet wide…quite a difference from the full sized trees that are easily three times that size or more. Edible plants can add variety, color and delicious choice to your ornamental beds and borders. Don’t be afraid to incorporate some into your gardens this year! Happy gardening! n
