The Community Investment Collaborative for Children has put together a great resource guide on creating healthier spaces for young children, Resource Guide for Greening Early Childhood Centers. For detailed information on all aspects of early childhood design development and financing, see the Community Investment Collaborative for Kids to download this resource and to get a complete set of resource guides here.
The first green child care center that our team worked on is in Kenosha WI. You can find out more about the center and its philosophies on healthy spaces at their website.
