Calling all young detectives! Join us on an adventure as Fossil Hunters and uncover the secrets of the ancient world. Children will become Nature Detectives for the day, exploring fossils, dinosaur bones, and the hidden stories they tell.
Through hands-on activities, little explorers will:
Investigate real and replica bones
Learn fascinating facts about dinosaurs and prehistoric creatures
Examine bones and figure out which animals they came from
Create their very own “fossil” to take home
Perfect for curious kids aged 3–6 years who love digging, discovering, and exploring the mysteries of nature. This is an adventure full of wonder, discovery, and fun learning in the great outdoors!
Eco Explorers is an all-weather outdoor program.
Ages: 1 – 6 years (siblings under 12 months are welcome to attend for free).
*Parents are responsible for their children at all times and are encouraged to join in on the fun
