About this event
Have you seen any monarchs this summer? They are the big orange butterflies that we see flying along the ditches and visiting flowers. They lay their eggs on milkweed and the caterpillars eat the leaves. This month, come listen to Gail Gibbon’s Monarch Butterfly book and then examine some specimens before we go looking for the different stages of monarchs around Kesling Wetland.
What is Tales & Trails?
Children and their caregiver(s) gather for a short story that incites curiosity before exploring different locations around Merry Lea’s property. Expect to hear a tale & hike a trail while discovering the natural wonders around you together. This is a 1.5 hour monthly program designed for children ages 3-5, with younger siblings welcome to join, led by a Merry Lea educator.
