The Children's Power Play! Campaign partners with and supports low-income schools across the San Diego and Imperial Region with free educational materials and other resources.  The Children's Power Play! materials can be used by teachers to conduct activities for individual students, small groups, and entire classes.

Some activities extend beyond the classroom to link with cafeterias and local communities.  Teachers may also wish to recruit community partners as guest speakers, organize classroom taste testings, take students on fruit and vegetable related field trips, and organize interactive school-centered events.
