Come out to Ijams Nature Center and get the chance to explore our thriving ecosystem and the animals living here! Each animal works hard and exercises incredible care to create their unique home in the wild. Participants will learn about what goes into animal survival by meeting one of our Ijams Animal Ambassadors! Then we'll seek out animal habitats in the wild while hiking, flipping logs, and peering in ponds. Lastly, participants will create their own animal habitat together and think about ways that we can conserve these habitats for years to come!
This program is perfect for Brownie Girl Scouts working on the Eco Friend Badge and Junior Girl Scouts focusing on the Animal Habitats Badge.
This program is designed for children ages 6-12 and their families. Participants can expect to travel a distance of up to 1.5 miles during the duration of the program over uneven surfaces that may include rocks, roots, and gravel. This program includes various stopping points. The entirety of the program will be held outside - please dress for the weather.
Parking for this Ijams Education Course is free for all participants. Please arrive 5-10 minutes before the program begins and take note of your license plate as you will need this information to receive free parking. If you have been issued a yearly membership or parking pass, you're all set!
