Cloverbuds

It is never too early to learn about veterinary medicine!

Following the "learn by doing" teaching philosophy of 4-H, Cloverbuds (ages 5-8) are introduced to veterinary medicine through fun activities and a specialized age-appropriate curriculum. 

The 4-H Mall has specific material for grades 3-5 (level I), grades 6-8 (level 2) and grades 9-12 (level 3). Generally speaking, the curriculum will be tailor-made to the individual student.  However, group activities will involve all age groups.  Below are some examples of group activities available to county groups:

• Tour of the Little Rock Zoo  in Little Rock
• Tour of Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge  in Eureka Springs
• Tour of University of Arkansas Veterinary Diagnostic Laboratory  in Fayetteville
