Children from Marvin Children's Center, a preschool on Gregory Boulevard, took a walking field trip to the beach on Friday morning. They had plenty of water fun under the shower at Shady Beach, first filling their buckets with water, then making wet sandy holes for mud pies. "We walk to the beach about three times every summer," says Maria Iacono-Maldonado, program coordinator of the Center. The Marvin Children's Center is a full-day, nationally accredited school readiness childcare program for three and four year olds. It is funded in part by the state and managed by Bright Horizons Family Solutions, a well-known national provider of early education. The preschool shares their building, "The Marvin", with a senior housing facility.
