Spring Break Camp “Mammals – Friend or Fur?” @ Houston Arboretum & Nature Center
Mar 12 – Mar 16 all-day

Mammals – Friend or Fur?

What do mice, whales and humans have in common? We are all mammals! Come and learn more about this diverse and fascinating group of creatures and get to know some of the special mammals that live right here in Texas. We’ll discover the wonders of fur, test our acute mammal sense of smell and see just what the mammals have that allowed them to survive the great extinction that ended the age of dinosaurs.

For explorers ages 4 to 12
Children are taught in classes by age: (4, 5 – 6, 7 – 8, and 9 – 12)

Arboretum’s Spring Break Camp (4-12) @ Houston Arboretum & Nature Center
Mar 11 – Mar 15 all-day

Naturalists use a variety of tools to explore the natural world, but most rely on the tools we are all born with: our senses! Children will explore their own senses and then discover which animals taste through their feet, which have natural radar, which can locate prey by sensing heat, and which have eyes that contain 30,000 lenses. Join the Houston Arboretum & Nature Center for a week of sensory exploration.
