Weekends at Trailside: What Lives in a Pond?

Description

Get ready to explore the hidden world of pond life! Start with a close-up look at a live pond animal and learn what makes these watery creatures so special. Then grab your nets and head outside to investigate the pond for yourself, scooping, observing, and discovering insects, tadpoles, and more. It's a fun, hands-on adventure perfect for curious kids who love getting a little muddy while learning something new.
