Little Critters – Late Winter (Wednesdays)

February 3 @ 1:30 pm - March 24 @ 2:30 pm

  • « Little Critters – Late Winter (Tuesdays)
  • Nature Detectives – Late Winter (ages 6-9) »

Join Sheldrake for our all-outdoor nature program, designed to give children the opportunity for STEM enrichment, connection with nature, and the company of other young enthusiasts. Each week, we’ll explore Sheldrake’s 60 acres, observing the effects of winter. Whether sneaking up on deer camouflaged in the woods, spotting a muskrat on the pond, or learning about hibernation, we’ll create our own adventure.

Our Little Critters:

  • get first-hand experience with science and nature
  • learn about birds, insects, seeds, trees, and other natural wonders
  • enjoy the outdoors as they walk the trails of a 60-acre conservancy
  • have fun with nature games and other activities

Dates: Wednesdays – February 3-March 24 (no class 2/17) (7 sessions)

Time: 1:30-2:30 pm

For ages: 3-5 (drop-off program; children must already have turned 3 before the first session)

Fee: $155 for members, $175 for non-members

COVID-19 Precautions: All participants are required to wear masks, complete daily health screeners, have their temperature taken daily, and sign a waiver at the outset of the program. Classes are conducted entirely outdoors, including in mildly inclement weather (any canceled classes will be made up). Attendance is limited.
