Nature Explorers: Amazing Ants

These classes are designed to teach young children and their caregivers more about wildlife and nature right in their own backyards through activities, explorations, games, hikes, and take-home crafts.

Scientists estimate that for every human on Earth there are over 2.5 million ants! Ants play an important role in many ecosystems, not only as predators but through their roles in seed dispersal and aerating soil. Join us as we learn more about ants, their insect characteristics, and their behavior as we go out on an ant hunt to observe them up close!
