Description
Gather for a summer nature play session for families to discover who lives in our rivers. Kids will search for wildlife along the Charles River using dip nets and observation tools, discovering firsthand how the river keeps the ecosystem cool during the hottest months and what creatures are hiding under the surface.
Then, play a game with water to cool down and learn about food webs. Through play and hands-on science, the group will explore how the river links every living thing in the park and why keeping it healthy matters for everyone.
