01/26/2016 – Trail Buddies

Trail buddies is a great opportunity for preschoolers to discover the thrills and chills of winter nature and develop important skills together with other preschoolers and their favorite adults. As we walk the nature center trails we’ll collect, count and sort different natural materials (pre-math), recognize shapes and patterns in nature (art) and invent our own outdoor nature games as we improve and develop social skills like sharing and cooperation. This program will meet every Tuesday except December 29th. Come for one, two, or all programs!

Ages 3 to 5

 

01/31/2016 – What Are You Missing?

Look around…listen…breath deep…touch! Our understanding of the world around us is based on what we can sense, and what we can imagine. As humans, we have limited senses of hearing and sight–and our sense of time also has an effect on what we understand. Join a Brookside naturalist to learn how to use different tools to expand your powers of observation and sharpen your senses. You never know what you’ll discover when you take a closer look!

Ages 5 & up
