Join our amazing instructors as we explore the Arboretum. Each month we explore something exciting and new along with a different theme associated with nature (see schedule below). Family adventure courses are for kids ages 7-12 (Feb fourth exception). Children should be supported by a grownup and since more youthful brothers and sisters could be a distraction we ask that the second adult takes these to do their own individual search for the Arboretum while the category is within session. You may also check out our Parent and Child Yoga, Bookworms, and our Botanical Enrichment Courses of instruction for your more youthful children.
Enrollment includes admittance to the Arboretum. Pre-registration needed for those classes. Call 626.821.4623 to join up.
