June 18th:  Your Very Own Story & Animal Signs:

• • Go for a walk in nature.
  • Look for a place that catches your attention.
  • Try to find animal signs during your nature hike.  Tracks can be found in muddy places or along the beach.
  • Use your imagination and what you know about nature to create a story.

Try taking turns adding what happens next, or even, tell a story with a song.  Here are some story and song starters you could try: deer, ants, squirrel, the tree.

What is Family Club?

• • Nature Explore Family Club at Bong is for 5-10 year old children and an adult  (or car pool group with one adult) to enjoy outdoor experiences. Siblings are welcome to attend.
  • Each program includes story times, movement and music as well as nature-based art making experiences with time to explore the NEC during and after your class.
  • The activities will connect families with the outdoors and each other, while introducing them to a variety of natural spaces.
  • In each session, we will explore a different theme.  Class topics will be selected from the National Nature Explore Classroom research-based, field-tested resources.
  • Bring your own snack.

Registration is appreciated, sign up for one or all sessions.

Please call 262-878-5601 to register.

Just a reminder that all events require a Wisconsin State Park entrance sticker or daily entrance fee.
