Our preschool program is designed to spark curiosity and appreciation for the natural world in children ages 4 or 5 with their favorite grown-up. Each class includes art, independent playtime, group activities, story time, and live plant or animal encounters.
Cost: $15/child. For each child registered, one adult gets in free. $15/adult above that.
Think Pink
