Join us as each month we explore the Animal Kingdom. From snails and snakes to beavers and birds we will take an in-depth look at the animals that are local to Southern New England. We will learn the seasonal habitat preferences, natural history and conservation status of different animals through discussion, meeting live animals, games, activities and fieldtrips.
With the exception of September, programs will be held the first Thursday of the month from 1:30-3:30. After enrollment is complete children are grouped according to ages. Please keep in mind that Nature Center programs are taught from a scientific perspective. While these classes are run as a drop-off program, parents are welcome to stay for part or all of the classes, however please check with us about accommodating younger siblings in the classroom. |
