Wednesday WondersWednesday Wonders are interactive programs designed to spark the curiosity of young children. Each week, we’ll explore a new science wonder with a story, craft, hike or related science experiment. This family style program, in which parents attend with their children, incorporates an outdoor activity each week so please come prepared for the weather. If hazardous weather such as lightning is present, indoor activities will be substituted.
Wednesday Wonders is offered at two separate times and locations each week. Weekly activities are FREE to Members (but please RSVP) and $5 for non-members (children only). Register at www.theparklands.org/events.
