IT’S ALIVE (LIVING VS. NON-LIVING) Grades: Pre-K - 3
What makes something alive? Students work together to define living and non-living using lots of hands-on examples. Then they expand their understanding with a planting project and a guided walk around the gardens to discover what living and non-living things can be found there.

SPRING HAS SPRUNG Pre K, K, 1
People living a hundred years ago were more attuned to the changes of the seasons than we are. Spring was seen as a time of renewal; new farm animals were bring born and new crops were being planted. Spring also meant the end of the “lean times” of winter. Join us as we explore these aspects of Spring during this creative movement and craft program. We will celebrate the new season with a tour of some of our buildings, a dance around the Maypole, and a Spring craft!
