Hands-on fun with Little Sprouts at the Arboretum!

The Arboretum will once again be hosting Little Sprouts! This fun educational event series is geared towards toddler-aged children and will take place on Wednesday mornings in March at the Dorotha Smith Oats Visitor Center.

Two sessions are offered each Wednesday: 10-10:45am and 11-11:45am. Each session has a special theme that begins with a story and hands-on exploration. Next, we will rotate through crafts, science experiments, and planting stations. Last, we will go outside and explore nature on a short hike (weather permitting).

Ages: 3-5 years old

Cost: $5 per child per session

Pre-registration required: Call (859) 257-6955 or email arboretum@uky.edu for more information and to register for the event.
