4-H Cloverbuds, age 5-7, have unique learning characteristics and developmental needs that are different from older members. As a result, the 4-H Cloverbuds program is designed with specific educational objectives and program policies focused on the 5–7 year-old child. This 36-page fact sheet was written by Joy C. Jordan, Kate Fogarty, Tracy Tesdall, and Renée Gore, and published by the UF Department of 4-H Youth Development, March 2011.
