Planned and led by a licensed Indiana educators, Indiana Master Naturalists, and trained staff in STEAM practices
Adaptable to all age groups, with options for classroom sessions, group activities, crafts, free exploration, and take-home learning. We are committed to providing high-quality, enriching experiences for every student.
