Fall Nature Programs For Kids 3 To 5 In Kane County

ST. CHARLES, IL — Kane County's kids will get a chance to get to know the natural world in a fun way this fall, as the Forest Preserve District of Kane County is hosting Nature Tykes and Little Naturalist sessions. There will be three events throughout the season for both 3-year-old and 4- to 5-year-old kids.

"In Nature Tykes, 3-year-olds explore the natural world through a variety of activities with their parents, grandparents or guardians," a release from the district said.

Kids and their adult companions will hear stories and songs, go on nature hikes and have fun with games and crafts from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m.:

• Sept. 27: Nature's Harvest
• Oct. 25: Fossils
• Nov. 29: Turkey Trot

In Little Naturalists, 4 and 5 year old kids will go without parents or guardians for the fun classes. They'll be on the same days as the Nature Tykes, and will have the same themes, but will run from 1 to 2 p.m.

All classes will be at the Creek Bend Nature Center in the LeRoy Oakes Forest Preserve at 37W700 Dean St., St. Charles. Classes cost $5 per child per session.

To register, call 630-444-3190 or email programs@kaneforest.com. Creek Bend Nature Center is located within LeRoy Oakes Forest Preserve at 37W700 Dean St., St. Charles.
