A new way to complete 4-H project records is here! 💻🍀

Beginning this year, North Carolina 4-H members can complete project records online through Kaleidoscope. This new option provides a more flexible, accessible way to document 4-H experiences while helping prepare youth for the digital tools they'll encounter in scholarships, college applications, internships and future careers.

During the 2026 transition year, members may choose between the new Kaleidoscope system, or the traditional document format.

Explore the new system and learn what it means for the 2026 program year at the link in our comments.
