Nighttime Wonders: Amphibians After Dark
Grades 3-5
Friday, March 28 6 - 8 pm
$45 per student
Limited to 12 students
Come and experience Woodcock Nature Center after dark in this special drop-off program for 3-5th graders! Educators will lead students on a night hike, along which we will look for and learn about amphibians that are
more active in the evening. We'll listen and look for frogs by our vernal pools and search for salamanders
underneath logs and on the forest floor. Upon returning from our hike we will gather around a campfire and
make s’mores before heading home!

Come scoop with us! In this drop-off program, we will take scooping equipment out to one of our
boardwalks to see what we can find living in the waters of our wetlands!
We'll be looking for Caddisfly Larvae, Dragonfly Larvae, Diving Beetles, Newts, Tadpoles, and more!
Afterwards we'll return to the nature center to do a cozy caddisfly craft and maybe meet one of our resident animals.
