Grades K-2 / 4-5pm
Formerly Nature Investigators, this after school program for children grades K-2 is back! During Nature Investigators, children will be able to enjoy open-ended outdoor play, exploring Earthplace’s 63-acre wildlife sanctuary and the variety of habitats it has to offer. Children should come prepared to spend the entire program outside, rain or shine.
Grades 3-5 / 4-5pm
Whether we are preparing turtle salads or learning what makes a great chinchilla home, each week of this program will feature a new adventure in Earthplace’s Animal Hall. Throughout the six-week session, each child will research one of the resident animals, learn about their needs, and design a model habitat. The session will end with a presentation about their animal and the design they have created. Children will also participate in various Animal Hall-based activities each week, including preparing animal diets, looking after animal enclosures, and creating opportunities for animal enrichment.
Grades 3-6 / 4-5pm
Here at Earthplace, we believe amazing things happen at the intersection of art and science. That is why we are thrilled to introduce our new after school program focusing on art and the natural world for children grades 3-6. This program will encourage the use of artistic creativity in a variety of mediums to explore themes of climate justice, phenology, biology, and more.
