About this adventure

A park naturalist from Independence Parks and Recreation talks with children about animals that live around the city, naming foxes, bugs, birds, and snakes, and the page says kids might get to pet one. It is indoors at George Owens DeWitt Hall on a Saturday afternoon in December, listed as a free event for all ages. The session is a single visit rather than a camp, and the page does not ask families to register. Children who are nervous about snakes can still come for the other animals; the page does not say a snake will definitely be handled. Dress for a short indoor program at the nature park's hall.
