Party Options:
Wild Exploration - Great for all ages!
You may not see them, but there are wild animals all around us! Go on a nature hike and scout the area for the signs animals leave behind. Optional: create your own plaster track.*
Snow Stomp - Age 7+
Explore winter on top of the snow with your huge snowshoe feet. Go on a snowshoe hike, look for animal tracks, play games, and see how fast you can run with big feet!
Grossology - Age 5+
Super gross things like blood, slime, scat, and maggots, are actually really super cool! Optional: create your own slime to take home.*
Insect Safari - Great for all ages!
Hike and explore the prairie and woods uncovering the smallest critters living there. Find creatures with lots of legs, hundreds of eyes, and long, slimy bodies.
Kitchen Science- Great for all ages!
Do wacky experiments with items that you probably have in your home. After this program you will never be bored in the kitchen again.*
Geocaching - Age 7+
Did you know there are hidden treasures in the woods? Use a GPS unit and your smarts to follow the scavenger hunt trail to find your prize.
Owl Detectives - Age 5+
Gather your flock and have a hoot celebrating. Learn if an owl can turn its head all the way around and hoo is at risk of being eaten by this nocturnal hunter. Optional: pick apart a real owl pellet and see what animal became owl dinner!*
Nature Art - Great for all ages!
Get crafty using nature as inspiration and maybe even as a paintbrush. Art projects will be nature based, and seasonally and age appropriate.
Party Animal- Great for all ages!
What do turtles like to eat, how do snakes move? Ask them yourself! Meet our resident reptiles and amphibians up close and personal.
Outdoor Fun and Games - Great for all ages!
This outdoor (indoor if needed) program will have kids running in circles, jumping in place, and cheering on their teammates. Come play the classic, and the not-so-classic, games with your friends.
