Part I
About this event
Introduce your toddler to the wonders of nature with this engaging class at Wehr Nature Center. "Little Wonders for Threes: Seeds & Sprouts" offers a delightful mix of storytelling, crafting, and exploration. Kids will enjoy the story "Planting a Rainbow" by Lois Ehlert, create a magic seed necklace, and pot a flower to take home.
The program also includes a walk to see spring wildflowers and a tasty “seedy” snack. It's a wonderful opportunity for young children to connect with nature and for adults to enjoy quality time with their little ones. Be sure to register online in advance, as spots are limited and fill up quickly.
