Calling all explorers! Join us for an exciting, hands-on program where we 'll discover the fascinating world of nocturnal animals!
Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
Youth participants, accompanied by an adult, will investigate how mammals in North Carolina have adapted to life after dark. Through interactive activities and a garden adventure, we 'll explore the special senses that help nocturnal creatures thrive at night and search for signs of the animals that may have visited the JCRA while we were asleep.
You'll also get an introduction to ecoEXPLORE, an incentive-based community science program developed by The North Carolina Arboretum. By making real-world observations and completing fun challenges, youth participants can earn badges and prizes throughout the year.
