Little Gardeners: Exploring Bugs and Plants (1 hour)

Young learners will embark on a fun-filled, hands-on journey through the wonders of nature! The program is divided into two exciting sections: first, children will explore the fascinating world of garden bugs with a bug hunt and identification session, discovering the important roles these insects play in a healthy garden. Then, they’ll dive into the life cycle of plants, learning what plants need to grow and how they change over time. The adventure culminates with a hands-on planting experience, where each child will plant their own seed and start their very own garden adventure! This program fosters curiosity, teamwork, and a love for the natural world.
