Give a Hoot at
January DCP Preschool Program
Darke County Parks Naturalist, Mandy Martin, invites preschoolers to
join her for the January Parent and Preschool Adventures programs.
Whoooo is it that calls in the night? Explore the owls of Ohio through
song, story, games, and crafts. The secretive, silent hunters will
delight the senses of every preschooler.
The “Little Explorers” class for 2-3 year olds will be held on January
11th from 10am to 11am, and the “Seedlings” class for 4-5 year olds
will be held on January 12th from 10am to 11am, both at Shawnee Prairie
Preserve on St. Rt. 502 west of Greenville. The Parent and Preschool
Adventures program is a series of monthly, hour long programs designed
to give parents and their preschoolers and opportunity to investigate
nature through hands-on activities, hikes, stories, songs, and
take-home projects.
A fee of $2 is charged for the program, and registration is required.
For any questions about the preschool programs or any other park
district programs or to register for the January class, please call
548-0165 or email info@darkecountyparks.org.
