Program Description:
Participants will discover the world of plants by learning about different plant parts, their life cycles, and how they can help keep our water clean. We’ll use hands on activities to explore these concepts and learn the importance of native plants in the water cycle. Each child will then plant a seed to take home, fostering a connection with nature and a hands-on understanding of environmental care. Join the Huron-Clinton Metroparks for a fun and education journey into the world of plants and water conservation!
All programs are provided inside the organizations facility or in a designated outdoor space. We will need tables and chairs for program participants and about a half hour pre program to set up the space.
