Answer the call of your wild child by getting outside with this monthly nature-themed program geared toward children ages 3 to 5. Join a naturalist for hands-on activities such as games, stories, crafts, hikes and more! The last Friday of each month we will have something new for you and your child to explore while getting a little dirt on those hands and knees.
Fee: Free!
Age: Ages 3-5. Children must be accompanied by a registered adult.
Registration required by Thursday, Jan. 29, by calling 815-722-4121 or online: https://anc.apm.activecommunities.com/fpdwc/activity/search/detail/9913?onlineSiteId=0&from_original_cui=true
Please register everyone in your group, children and adults.
Dress accordingly and be prepared for all outdoor activities as well as experiencing all weather types (rain, shine, and even snow).
Trails are on natural, uneven surfaces with elevation changes. Hidden Oaks Nature Center is an accessible facility. Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service to participate in this program should submit a request online (https://www.reconnectwithnature.org/americans-with-disabilities-act-information/request-accommodation-inclusion-service/) no later than 48 hours before the program.
