Upcoming April Events

Spring is at last coming our way! Celebrate the warm breezes and sweet flowers by jumping into our April programming. This month we’re exploring themes around the animals that make this seasonal change possible — Playful Pollinators! 

Looking Back on March

March's Birds of a Feather lesson was an exciting success! Naturalists were eager to fly right into all the adaptations that make birds so unique. From local upstate New York birds like robins to the birds of South America like the Quetzal, we explored them all! By the end of this lesson both learners and families were invited to create their very own DIY pine cone bird feeder using a bit of sunbutter and native birdseed.

Looking Back on February

 

February's World's Wacky Wild Animals lesson was a big hit this month! Naturalists explored the unique adaptations seen across different animal groups and how they differ between terrestrial and aquatic critters. With families with discussed what makes a fish so different from a mouse or even a flipper from a paw? Learners even got to draw and create their own unique creature with it's own special adaptations!

Looking Back on December

December's Life Under the Ice lesson was a lot of fun for our winter naturalists! Families were given molds of different fish from Lake Onondaga to make fish prints with. Learners explored how fish got nutrients during the harsh winter months and how frozen lakes make life more challenging for aquatic life.
