The Highlands Center for Natural History is accepting registration for two unique programs that lead children outdoors to make their own discoveries of the fascinating and fun world of nature. The first program, Knee-High Naturalists is a hands-on, outdoor program for preschoolers and their parents. Instructor Lisa Packard leads children in animal role-play, nature crafts, stories, songs, and a snack as they explore our unique forest friends of the Central Arizona Highlands. This is a great opportunity for parents to spend quality time with their young children outdoors on Saturday mornings in a beautiful location.
Nature Nuts is the Highlands Center’s monthly nature club for children 6-12 years of age. Children spend a morning outside developing their awareness of the natural world through exploration, discovery, art, and science. More Kids in the Woods and Leave No Child Inside are both national movements encouraging programming that brings children outside and experiencing nature. This opportunity exists right now in Yavapai County at your local nature center, the Highlands Center for Natural History. Enroll your children today and have them experience the wonder right here in the Prescott National Forest.
