During their seasonal Family Days, children create natural birdseed ornaments, pinecone bird feeders, and coastal evergreen wreaths to take home or hang in their backyards for winter wildlife. Kids can visit the center's touch-tank aquarium, meet live rescued raptors and owls up close during naturalist presentations, and explore interactive exhibits highlighting bay marine life. Outside, the property offers a gentle boardwalk trail leading through peaceful coastal salt marshes down to the bay shoreline, perfect for spotting migratory winter ducks and harbor seals. Family Experience & Accessibility: • Stroller Accessibility: Main indoor aquarium building and the outdoor quarter-mile boardwalk trail are flat, wooden, and fully stroller-accessible. • Nursing & Rest Spots: Discovery room provides cushioned chairs for nursing, with spacious family restrooms equipped with baby-changing counters. • Age Suitability: Ideal for curious toddlers, elementary nature lovers, and parents wanting an educational, screen-free holiday outing. • Sensory Tips: Quiet, nature-centered atmosphere; live animal talks are conversational and unamplified, and hands-on craft tables provide calming sensory engagement. ## Similar picks in Providence - [Holiday Poinsettia & Winter Succulent Showcase at Botanical Center](https://grassyknees.com/providence/activities/holiday-poinsettia-and-winter-succulent-showcase-at-botanical-center--listing-aed16eae8cdf094dc7179fa9) — Dec 1 – Dec 30 · 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM · Roger Williams Park Botanical Center · All ages · From $5 · checked Nov 5.
