Gather up your preschoolers and head to Hartman Reserve Nature Center for a snowy story time! The book of the day will be When Winter Comes by Nancy Van Laan, with snow and ice activities to follow. Preschoolers can also make their very own sock snowman to take home. Come early to watch the birds at the feeder, play with the puppets or stack the wooden blocks. Remember to say hello to the snake, turtles and salamanders! A suggested donation of $2/child will help cover the cost of supplies. Nature Tales is geared towards children ages 3-5, but siblings are welcome. Nature Tales is intended to be a time for both children and adults to learn about the nature together. For more information on Nature Tales Story Hour, please call Hartman Reserve Nature Center at (319) 277-2187 or visit: www.BlackHawkCountyParks.com. Preschools and groups larger than four children are asked to pre-register by noon on Monday, January 13th so adequate craft supplies are prepared.
