Winter Bird Workshop at Kidzu
For the Love of the Birds! Winter Workshop
Sunday, February 16th, 2020
3 p.m. to 4 p.m.
Free (but regular admission applies to go inside and play–see below for museum discounts)
Share some warmth this winter season with the birds! Not everyone flies South for the winter. Learn about who sticks around and how you can ease their stay. Make bird seed ornaments, be the first to try Kidzu’s new Bird Discovery Pack, and leave your mark in the Kidzu Garden as we work together to build a new bird bath. All our helpers will get to imprint and sign their name on our water gift to our feathered friends! Free outdoor activity. Admission is required to come and play inside Kidzu afterwards.
