Wonders of the Desert: Nature Play & Storytime-CLASS IS NOW HELD ONSITE AT THE SAHUARITA FRC

Wonders of the Desert: Nature Play & Storytime-Lizards

Join us for an enriching sensory adventure in Wonders of the Desert, where young children (ages 2–5) explore the natural world through play-based, developmentally appropriate outdoor activities. Guided by a trained nature-based educator, each session offers three to four fun hands-on experiences—like digging, building, crafting, and observing—designed to spark curiosity and build early learning skills. We’ll wrap up with a themed Storytime that ties everything together, helping little ones connect, imagine, and grow in nature. All participants will be given a Family Activity page in English & Spanish to extend the learning and fun at home.

This week’s class Lizards- Families will observe and pretend to be desert lizards, learning how they move, stay cool, and hide in their environment. Through playful games and activities, children build body awareness, practice observation skills, and discover how lizards survive in the desert.
