For Kids: The Wonders of Flight

July 20 @ 10:30 am – 12:00 pm

| WH/Downy Loop Trail

If you have any questions regarding this program, please call the Nature Realm Visitors Center at 330-865-8065 (Wednesday—Saturday 10 a.m.—5 p.m., Sunday 12–5 p.m.).

Kids and their adult companions join a naturalist to learn about birds, flying squirrels, butterflies and other creatures that float, fly and glide through the air! We’ll start in the shelter for an introduction and simple craft, then take a short walk in search of animals in the sky before trying our hands at flying kites. Some will be available to borrow, or feel free to bring a kite from home.
