Topic: Connecting kids to nature
Audubon Arkansas connects kids to nature through a variety of outdoor and classroom activities at the Little Rock Audubon Center and other natural areas. Throughout the year, Audubon Arkansas serves students from Pulaski County and Little Rock School Districts, as well as after-school and home-school groups, boy and girl scout troops, and more. Last year, over 2500 students participated in Audubon programming. Come hear how Audubon teaches kids about birds and the environment. You might just learn something.
