Preschool Environmental Education Program or PEEP, for short
Give your child the opportunity to experience the wonders of wildlife during our Preschool Environmental Education Program (PEEP) at Brukner Nature Center! Designed for children ages 3 – 5, PEEP offers captivating hands-on wildlife encounters and guided discovery walks, to kindle curiosity and foster a lifelong appreciation for wildlife and wild places (this is a drop-off program).
Each class lasts 1.5 hours and is limited to 11 children guided by BNC staff and a volunteer helper. Classes meet once a week for six weeks, investigating a different wildlife-related topic each week during mostly outdoor activities. This program is designed specifically for children ages 3 – 5 years old, who are potty-trained (no pull-ups) and are not attending Kindergarten or being homeschooled for Kindergarten.
Classes are offered Monday – Friday mornings from 9:30am – 11:00am and Thursday afternoons from 1:00pm – 2:30pm.
