Hello SFAEYC members and friends,

The Week of the Young Child has arrived (April 17 - 24, 2004) and there are some exciting local events that we wanted you to know about:

Week of the Young Child

The sixth annual San Francisco Week of the Young Child is held in conjunction with the nationwide celebration sponsored by the National Association for the Education of Young Children, NAEYC. Please visit the SFAEYC website (http:/pages.sbcglobal.net/sfaeyc/events.htm) to see details for all of these events.
