Description
Explore how nature prepares for winter through songs, stories, and sensory activities.
From chilly winds to fresh animal tracks in the snow, little learners discover the magic of the season and how animals, plants, and people get ready for the cold months ahead.
Perfect for young children with an accompanying adult, this program encourages families to slow down, connect with nature, and celebrate the wonder of winter together.
This program is free for Dot Rx Members. Please email [email protected] to register.
