Junior Naturalist

Junior Naturalist is a hands-on program for kids that is the counterpart to the popular certified Master Naturalist program for adults. This pint-sized version immerses children in their natural environment, teaches them how to make a difference, and is loads of kid-friendly fun!

Children ages 8 to 12 are invited to become a Junior Naturalist through hands-on science discovery, journaling, and art. This program encourages children to have fun while learning about the natural world.

Kids who attend at least 8 programs within a school year will become certified Junior Naturalists!
