What's the Buzz?
Tuesday, April 30th | 10:00 am - 11:30 am
It’s Spring and nature is busy again! Birds are starting to build their nests; frogs have emerged from their winter sleep and the insects are buzzing with excitement. Shoots of green are appearing in the trees, meadows, and parks. We will explore the life cycles of bees and flowers in this informative and fun class. The children will plant their own flowers and learn the basics of gardening. It’s the season! Space is limited.
For Ages 6-8 (drop-off) | $30
