Family Ponding Time

Families that pond together bond together! Discover the amazing adaptations that enable pond plants and animals to survive in their habitat. Using handheld magnifiers, nets, and our pond-life visual aids, we’ll explore life in our own Goodliffe Pond. Families will rotate among multiple stations, learning about life cycles, food chains and webs, and the ways that various pond creatures move, eat, and breathe. Refreshments will be offered.
