Kids Week: Meet the Critters

Friday, February 21, 2025

1:00 p.m.–2:00 p.m.

Even when school's out, our parks are still the city's natural classroom! Bring your kids to parks throughout the city for Kids Week during Mid-winter recess. With programs led by our Urban Park Rangers, kids will get to experience nature in a hands-on and fun way. From stick bugs to snakes, meet the animals that call the center their home.
