Turtles, ducks, frogs and more! Discover the animals that call North Pond home. After searching for animals along the pond’s edge, we will use nets and magnifiers to get a good look at some of the animals living beneath the water. This program is for children ages 4-6 and a caregiver. Adult and child should come prepared to spend time outdoors and to get a little muddy. Price includes access to all museum exhibits. Museums for all pricing available upon request. Email programs@naturemuseum.org
