Brrrrr! It’s getting wintry outside! Join us at Merry Lea’s Learning Center as we read Winter Dance by Marion Dane Bauer, and then we will explore how different animals prepare for winter. We will feel furs, look for tracks, and build our own warm dens as we hike on our trails.  

Come prepared to be outside for the whole program time. A jacket, boots, and water bottle are recommended.

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.
