GRAFTON — Visit The Nature Musuem on Friday, April 22, from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m., for a special program for youth and families in honor of Earth Day.
An indoor program, titled “Predators and Prey,” by Environmental Educator Jamie Maloof-Schilling, will be followed by a moderate hike in the forest and fields surrounding the Nature Museum.
The power and prowess of a predator are amazing, but so are the skills and abilities of their prey. Through stories, games, and touchable artifacts we will learn how animals find a meal–or avoid being dinner. Hone your natural instincts while playing games that tap into your sense of sight, smell, sound, and touch. There will be plenty of interaction with fur, pelts, and bones to learn how carnivores, omnivores, and herbivores are connected.
The Museum's natural history exhibits, educational mounts, and hands-on activities will be open to explore until 1 p.m. on April 22. The program is open to all ages; admission is by donation. Walk-ins welcome but an RSVP is always appreciated.
