They can see animal tracks in the snow as well as learn which animals are active and which are hibernating. These topics and more are addressed during the cold-season Little Naturalist Story Time classes for ages 3 to 5 that are held at least twice a month from 1011 a.m. on select Mondays at the Swaner EcoCenter. There isn’t a set schedule of which Mondays the event will take place, because of holidays, so the best way to learn about upcoming sessions is to visit swanerecocenter.org, said Brianna Cencak, Swaner Preserve and EcoCenter’s youth programs coordinator. The next session will be held on Jan. 6. Registration is available in advance online or the day of the event. The cost is $2 per participant. Each session on average accommodates 15 to 20 kids, but there is space for up to 35, Cencak said. “The goal of Little Naturalist is to provide young kids the opportunity to explore nature and encourages them to be curious and engage with the outdoors,” she said. These classes tie into the EcoCenter’s mission, which is to “Preserve, Educate and Nurture,” according to Cencak.
