The Lackawanna College Environmental Education Center invites children ages three to six years old and their parents or guardians to attend Early Explorers, a program aimed at providing children with a lifelong, meaningful relationship with the natural world.
Classes will be held every Thursday from April 22 to May 27, from 1:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Lackawanna College Environmental Education Center (LCEEC) located 93 MacKenzie Road, Covington Township, PA 18444.
Early Explorers is a program series that offers discovery-based learning that changes with each season.
Using the natural world as a catalyst for growth and development, children will explore natural sciences, gain sensory awareness, creatively express themselves, and practice using large and fine motor skills while developing critical social skills.
During each class, children will have the opportunity to hike and explore the various habitats on the 211-acre property, which includes a forest, meadow, open field, and a stream.
Children will also gain first-hand experiences with plants and animals.
Each week will feature a different nature-related topic including Super Seeds, Busy Bees, Animal Mothers, Awakening Amphibians, For the Birds and Little Sprouts.
The cost is $40 for the series of six classes. Registration is limited, and pre-registration is required. This is an outdoor program, so please dress for the weather. Masks are required.
