About This Activity
Description
Delight in nature explorations while playing outside this summer! Follow your curiosity to explore the park, discover what creatures live in a creek, and adventure through gardens in search of cool plants and pollinators. Meet live education animals up close, then hike to seek wildlife, or the clues they leave behind, using tools to get a closer look. Play in the woods, build a stick village, and practice wilderness skills like building a fire or using a map and compass. Try paddling a canoe and cool off with a swim at the beach. Each day is sure to offer a summer adventure full outdoor fun in nature!
