Coming soon!

SCIENCE SORCERY
Throw on your wizard’s hat and cloak,
grab your magic wand, and head over to
El Dorado Nature Center’s school of sorcery.
“We will perform amazing magic spells”
using the power of science. Mon, Dec 22

FOOL THE EYE
Hide out with us as we observe through
animal’s eyes. We’ll sharpen our observational
skills, learn how some animals get around at night,
and see how animals use color,
shape and size to camouflage. Tues, Dec 23

IT’S A BUG’S LIFE
Discover the incredible world of insects.
Learn about their feeding habits, homes,
defenses, and life cycles by watching
them up close. Read some squirmy-wormy
books and make your very own creepy-crawly
creatures using natural materials…
and lots of imagination. Wed, Dec 24

BACKYARD BUDDIES
Learn about the awesome animals that find
food and shelter in your neighborhood.
Discover how to create a safe and healthy
habitat for birds and butterflies in your
backyard and leave with a bird feeder
you created yourself! Fri, Dec 26


WEAVE AND WEAR
Native people used to make beautiful
clothes and jewelry from things they
found in nature. Using native plants,
shells, and beads we’ll make our own
wear-able art! Mon, Dec 29

MIGRANT MONARCHS AND
OVER-WINTERING WINGS
Discover the fascinating lives of migratory
Monarch butterflies and birds.
Where do they come from?
Where do they go? And why do they call
Nature Center home? Tues, Dec 30


YUCK!
Enter the mysterious world of unhuggables.
We’ll examine creepy, slippery, slimy,
incredible creatures...and learn how living
things that aren’t usually seen as cute and
cuddly still have tremendous value. Wed, Dec. 31


SENSATIONAL SERPENTS
Snakes are scaly, slithery, and sometimes scary.
Get up close and personal with these wriggly
reptiles and learn about their sensational lives. Fri, Jan 2
