WINGED WONDERS

  • 4505 Forest Avenue Des Moines, IA, 50311 United States (map)

This week we will focus on the amazing journey of the monarch butterfly and make a monarch moblie that showcases it’s life-cycle. We’ll learn how to identify monarchs, backyard butterflies and moths in our neighborhood. We’ll create some cool garden art and get our science groove on with the microscope! We’ll explore how these pollinators help us, and create our own scientific watercolor “specimens”. We’ll do our best to help our winged friends by starting our own butterfly gardens.
