Nature Detectives: Monarch Butterflies
Advertisement
Spread your wings and join us for a butterfly-filled adventure! During this Nature Detectives program, participants will explore the incredible life cycle and migration of monarch butterflies while learning why these remarkable insects are so important to our environment. Through a hands-on scavenger hunt and interactive activities, young detectives will search for clues about monarch habitats, discover the special relationship between monarchs and milkweed plants, and learn how these delicate butterflies travel thousands of miles each year during one of nature's most extraordinary migrations.
Participants will investigate the four stages of a monarch's life cycle from egg to caterpillar, chrysalis, and butterfly, and discover simple ways they can help support pollinators in their own communities. Along the way, they'll learn about the important role butterflies and other pollinators play in maintaining healthy ecosystems and vibrant landscapes. Participants who successfully complete the hunt will receive a prize. Attend all five Nature Detectives programs and you'll be entered to win a special grand prize drawing at the end of the series. Please dress comfortably for the outdoors and bring water.
