Stop by the Children’s Garden for fun activities that explore and celebrate the world of plants. Each week day offers new themes. During the summer months this is a great time to bring a picnic and blankets. The children can participate and play in the Thunder Fountain and take a ride on Mo’s Carousel.

Make-It Monday: Children’ will “make and take” something home using a variety of natural and human-made craft materials.
Plant-tastic Tuesday: Each week learn about a new beautiful or tasty plant and pot up its seed to take home and grow on your own.
Reading Wednesdays: It’s that time of year again when Reading Wednesdays moves back outside! Enjoy nature-inspired books that connect children with what is growing and changing in the Garden each week.
Blooming Thursday: Learn about what plants are blooming this week in the Children’s Garden. Then go on a hunt to find that plant yourself!
Find-It Friday: This is a self-guided scavenger hunt, leading you on a discovery of nature in the Children’s Garden with all of its shapes, textures, and beautiful colors. Use fun tools like the magnifying lens and binoculars as you wind your way through the Garden.
