February Vacation Week: Younger Participants
Description
Join us for another exciting February Vacation Week! We will explore the winter landscape of the Boston Nature Center while learning about the amazing adaptations of the plants and animals around us. We will experiment with snow, discover tracks, tap maple trees and other unique winter activities. Through an engaging nature-inspired curriculum and in a safe, inclusive community, we will have fun and learn during February Vacation.
In smaller groups, Owls (age 5-6), Hawks (age 6-7), Falcons (age 7-9), we will explore outdoors every day, bird watching, building forts, and going for walks on a beautiful 67 acre wildlife sanctuary.

When determining the appropriate sliding scale pricing tier for your family, we take into account gross family income and household size. Relevant income includes the income of the parent(s) or caregiver(s) living with the child; child support is not considered relevant income for determining sliding scale tier eligibility. Household size refers to all of the family members living with the child, including parents or legal guardians and their children/dependents.
