Looking for a free, low-key Saturday morning with a preschooler? The Loxahatchee River Center has a garden class built for ages 3 to 6, and this month's theme is manatees.
Blooming in the Garden (the River Center's "Bloomin' in the Garden" program) is Saturday, Nov. 7, from 10 to 11:30 a.m. at the River Center, 805 N. U.S. Highway 1 in Jupiter, according to the River Center's event page.
What kids will do
The program starts at 10 a.m. with a story and a nature-themed craft. Then the group heads out to the garden to explore. Each child takes home seeds to start a garden of their own.
What to know before you go
Cost: Free. Donations are welcome, the River Center says.
Registration is required. Space is limited, and the River Center asks families to sign up only if they plan to attend and to tell staff if they can't make it. Use the register link on the event page.
Ages: 3 to 6.
Dress for it: The activity is outside. The River Center suggests dressing comfortably and being ready to get a little messy. All supplies are provided.
Contact: 561-743-7123 or [email protected].
