Bring your 2-5 year old for a morning filled with nature exploration, stories, and connection with our amazing natural world.

Sometimes, animals hide away where we can't see them! But how do we know they're still around? This month, we'll practice finding evidence of wild animals and explore what we can learn about animals from what they leave behind.

A parent or guardian must accompany the child for this program. Registration is required but program is free. Runs at Lions Open Space on the third Thursday of the month and the following Saturday at River Bluffs Open Space.
