This Workshop will dive deep into the world of our scaly friends. Participants will learn what a reptile is, how they differ from other types of animals, what they need to thrive, and more! Throughout the day, they’ll get the opportunity to watch a reptile feeding show that will include some of our snake, lizard, and turtle friends! They’ll also be able to participate in a much-needed bath time for some unlikely reptile friends. Don’t worry, the nature center’s other animal groups such as the birds and mammals will not be forgotten! Workshop participants always get the chance to provide all of our animal residents with their daily care.
These FUN and EDUCATIONAL workshops provide children with unique learning experiences. Animals, Science, Hiking, Team Building, Music, Crafts, and more! Workshop participants get to go behind the scenes and learn what it takes to become a professional animal caregiver at the Barn Nature Center! During all Workshops, students will assist the Barn Nature Center staff in performing our daily animal care routine. In addition, each workshop features interactive and experiential activities designed to engage students in the Workshop's theme. Workshops are $64 per day and run from 9am-4pm. We recommend students bring a packed lunch (snack is provided), a refillable water bottle, and closed-toe shoes!
