Get in the Back-to-School Spirit With Free Educational Resources from PestWorldForKids.org

For many families across the U.S., the end of August marks the beginning of another school year. From buying new supplies to planning first-day outfits, it can be a busy month as parents try to prepare their children for the academic year ahead. To help shake their summer cobwebs,  Cowleys Pest Services, a Pest Control company that has been servicing Monmouth, Ocean, Middlesex, and Mercer County for 30 years, is sharing free and educational learning materials made available by the National Pest Management Association on PestWorldForKids.org. 

“We all know how difficult it can be to get back into the learning mindset, especially after the last few months,” said Bill Cowley, Co-Owner of Cowleys Pest Services. “Whether your child’s learning will be in-person or virtual this year, the materials made available on PestWorldForKids.org are great for helping children prep for the coming school year while also exposing them to the fun and interesting world of pests.”   

From Critter Crafts to Pest Quest episodes, there is something for children of all ages on PestWorldForKids.org. The educational activities and learning experiences on the website support educational standards from the National Science Teachers Association (NSTA) and the National Council of Teachers of English (NCTE).
