What does the theme Building Connections mean?
Childhood is a time of rapid learning and discovery. Each new experience forms new connections in the brain, laying the foundation for the rest of our lives and influencing how we learn, relate to others, and see ourselves. Just like in our brains, we build connections through openness, creativity, and communication.
The theme Building Connections celebrates these links, the ones between science and art, between children and the community, and between possibility and reality. We are inviting you to contribute to this gallery and celebrate the ways in which children form connections that help them grow, dream, and thrive.
