Caterpillar Club is designed for parents (or grandparents, aunts, uncles, or nannies) to accompany their toddler or preschooler (ages 2-5) as they share stories, play games, create crafts, and explore the natural world. Led by Kristen Zemaitis, Youth Education Program Director, Caterpillar Club is one of the few preschool adventures in Memphis that gets your little one discovering nature, hands-on, in the great outdoors. Caterpillar Club Summer Camp runs Monday, June 1 or July 6, through Friday, June 5 or June 6, from 10 am-12 pm. Adventures in My Big Backyard June 1-5, 2026 10 am-12 pm Kick off summer with a week of discovery in My Big Backyard! We'll explore the plants and animals that call our own backyards home, digging into Wormville, buzzing through Pollinator Pass, and diving into hands-on activities, crafts, stories, and games. It’s curiosity, play, and nature all rolled into one unforgettable adventure. Nature Detectives July 6-10, 2026 10 am - 12 pm Calling all curious, nature-loving preschoolers! Who left that footprint? What’s that sound? Why do bees adore flowers? Spend the week sleuthing through the Garden as we crack nature’s coolest mysteries. Little detectives will dig, discover, and uncover clues all around them because every good mystery deserves a muddy answer. Cost for the Week: $120 MBG Members/$150 Non-Members
