Weekend Family Class: Winter Explorers
January 31, 2015
Chicago Botanic Garden, Glencoe, Illinois
This weekend dress your family in plenty of layers and come out to the Chicago Botanic Garden to partake in the Weekend Family Class, Winter Explorers, where you can discover all of the interesting ways that plants and animals survive throughout the brutally-cold winter months. The Garden’s 385-acre preserve is home to countless plants and animals, all who must find their own ways to endure the frigid elements winter after winter.
Together, adults and children can learn how evergreens not only live, but thrive during the winter months. Additionally, you can search for animal tracks keeping your eyes peeled for squirrel, groundhog, rabbit, or even deer prints. All of these animals, and many more, call the Garden home. If you wander quietly enough, you may even have the luck of finding one heading to their winter refuge. You may also want to visit the Fruit and Garden Classroom to partake in a hands-on activity. Children will be given opportunity to make a snow catcher to take home.
Admission to attend the Weekend Family Class, Winter Explorers, is $23.00 per non-member child. Garden Plus members will receive a 20% discount. To register your family online, please click here and choose between the two offered class times.
So grab your coats, boots, hats, scarves, and anything else to protect you from the cold, and head out to the Chicago Botanic Garden this Saturday. The newly-added Weekend Family Class, Winter Explorers, will provide the necessary skills to master winter exploration!
