Session #2: February 26, March 5, 12, 19, 26, and April 2

Each week, we’ll start with an introduction to 3-4 amazing animals such as armadillos, opossums, giant tortoises, wallabies, blue-tongued skinks, axolotls, marbled polecats, or fire salamanders (to name a few!). Kids and parents will learn about each animal, ask questions, and even pet some of the hardier animals! We’ll then move to activities and games designed for various ages and abilities, followed by fun stories about animals. The morning concludes with sensory stations and several cool crafts based on our newly discovered animal friends.
