Larvae Land – Special play zone just for little bug lovers with hands-on fun and insect-themed games.
Bug Discovery Walks – Grab a net and go exploring! Hunt for bugs in ponds, prairies, and woods.
Ask an Entomologist – Ever wonder why fireflies glow or how ants carry so much? A real bug scientist is here to answer it all!
Pollinator Power – Discover how to make your backyard a buzzing paradise for butterflies and bees.
Come dressed as your favorite bug and join the fun! Wings, antennae, and buggy smiles welcome!
