Preschool Nature Program at Dix Park!
About this Event

All animals grow and change in their lifetimes; but some animals grow and change in BIG ways. Through games, songs and stories, children will come to understand the amazing process of metamorphosis! We’ll even get to see up close some live animals who go through these big changes.

Preschoolers will have fun learning about animals and nature at the park. Stories, games, songs, and live creatures bring this program to life for little learners! Please arrive a few minutes before 11:00 am. We know that sometimes late arrivals can't be helped, but arriving late can disrupt the attention of the group.

This program is for ages 2-6 only. All children must be accompanied by an adult.



Know Before You Go

Walking up hills, in grass, and on uneven surfaces may be necessary. Closed-toe shoes are recommended.

Indoor restrooms and a water fountain are available inside the Chapel.



Tickets

While free to attend, registration is required for each child. Space is limited so please register your child(ren) only. As a reminder, all children must be accompanied by an adult during the entire program.

This program is free thanks to Dix Park Conservancy donors.



Weather

If we need to postpone or cancel due to inclement weather, we will communicate through Eventbrite email. The instructor has the right to cancel programs onsite if severe weather impacts the class or poses a safety risk.

Parking: Accessible parking spaces are available in all lots.

Restrooms: Accessible port-a-johns are located at the Big Field and Flowers Field. Indoor accessible restrooms are available in the newly renovated Chapel.

Programs and events: Raleigh Parks Inclusion Services works with community members to support participation.
