(All Ages) Come stay and play at our Nature Center on select Fridays of every month. Spend time together as a family reading books, making crafts, playing games, exploring natural objects with a microscope, doing puzzles, digging in the sandbox and many more play opportunities. Enjoy a short presentation or read-aloud story by a naturalist every hour. Each month the space will transform into a different theme and activities will be refreshed so there will always be something new to discover. A staff member will be in the building if you have any questions or need assistance, but this event is designed as self-guided play time accompanied by a parent or guardian. You are not required to stay for the entire length of time. Once you receive a wristband you may come and go as you please.
(7-12 yrs.) Find and get to know our local amphibians. Join a naturalist as we roll logs and dip nets looking for terrestrial salamanders, aquatic newts and tadpoles and some of the many plants and critters they live and interact with.
(4-Adult) Jump into spring with a guided nature hike along one of our many trails here at Riverbend Park. Each week we will explore a new section of the park. Find early spring ephemeral flowers along the forest trails. Observe tapoles, turtles and other aquatic life in Carper's pond or catch a glimpse of the bald eagles along the Potomac Heritage Trail.
