Be Kind! Bug Hunt @ Houghton's Pond
Jul 24 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

Get ready to go on a bug hunt, where we will become bug detectives searching for tiny creatures hiding in the grass, under rocks, and in trees. We’ll provide everything you need, so all you have to bring is your curiosity. As we explore, we’ll look closely at beetles, ants, butterflies, and other crawly critters, and learn what makes them special. Bugs are cool as they have amazing colors, super strength, and some even help plants grow! We won’t keep the bugs, just take a close look and gently let them go back to their homes. It’s going to be a fun adventure full of surprises! And when the bug hunt is over, you can keep the adventure going by searching for bugs around your home or neighborhood.

Nature Journaling for Kids @ Houghton's Pond
Aug 28 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

On our nature journaling hike, we will become young explorers and scientists. As we walk along the trails, we will use our eyes, ears, and even noses to discover the wonders of nature all around us. We will provide all the journals and drawing materials, so you just need to bring your curiosity. Along the way, we’ll stop to sketch interesting leaves, colorful bugs, or cool animal tracks. No need to be a perfect artist. Just notice what you see and let your imagination and curiosity guide you. It’s going to be a fun adventure, and we’ll explore nature together! And when the hike is over, you can take your journal home and keep exploring, noticing, and drawing the amazing things you find in your own backyard or neighborhood.
