Description
Chickadees are curious, energetic, and small but brave. In our series for homeschool families with young children, a parent or guardian and their little chickadee will explore together.
This season we will visit the many different ecosystems that make up the sanctuary from field, to wetland, to woodland. In each, we will explore the different plants, animals, and invisible cycles and connections that make each place unique. Highlights include stories, songs, and nature crafts.
