A Chest Full of Stories with Miss Karen

This event is no longer on sale.

Wednesday June 1

10:00 AM  –  11:00 AM

SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN AGES 3-6

Are you looking for ways to increase your child's awareness of the natural world? Join us as we begin a new Story Time called A Chest Full of Stories with Miss Karen at Tyler! Exposing children to the wonders of nature has been shown to spark creativity and imagination, so we’d love to help families encourage a lifetime of learning about the world in which we live.

This week Miss Karen will be reading Give Bees a Chance by Bethany Barton, followed by a craft. Join us to learn about different types of bees and how many flowers it take to make one pound of Honey. We will also learn how to make bees scatter and make a bee to take home. Then we will take a short walk to Tyler’s Pollinator Preserve to see what we can find!

This program is for children ages 3-6 with one supervising adult. Check-in at the Visitor Center where Miss Karen will join you for a short walk to an area that sparks our imaginations. This is an outdoor activity, so please dress accordingly. In case of rain the event will take place in a protected area.
