Explore the hidden habitats and secret lives of forest animals in this exhibit, specially designed for children 3 to 8.
Through dramatic play and multi-sensory activities, children will discover nature from an animal’s point of view as they explore naturalistic environments, including a stream, woodland, meadow, cave and naturalists’ tent.
Where does a chipmunk sleep? What does an eagle feed its young? How do mother bats find their babies in a dark cave? Young children are natural scientists, curious about the world around them.
Animal Secrets helps develop important science skills, encouraging observing, comparing and measuring, communicating, investigating and finding patterns. The exhibit panels are written in English and Spanish.
