But the real showstopper? A live performance and exclusive Q&A with a professional musician who has played alongside Taylor Swift, Gwen Stefani, Phoebe Bridgers, and more! Whether your child dreams of being on stage or just loves to move to the music, this day is all about exploring sound and having a blast!

This fun-filled day will take you on an exciting journey through nature, where you’ll create your own homemade birdfeeders to attract feathered friends and craft nature-inspired mobiles using materials gathered from the great outdoors. Kids will embark on a scenic hike through Forest Park where they will learn about the local ecosystem. The adventure doesn’t stop there—get up close and personal with some fascinating creatures during a special presentation by the Reptile Man, where you’ll meet reptiles and learn about their unique traits. It’s a day full of exploration, creativity, and a deeper connection to the world around us!
