Little Explorers Preschool Class

Children ages 3 ½ to 5, along with a parent or caregiver, are invited to join our Education team each Tuesday as we encourage curiosity, exploration, and learning through play with stories, activities, and crafts about the natural world. Following the program, parents and caregivers are encouraged to explore the museum with their children and learn more about the day’s topic in the exhibit halls. A new topic will be explored each week, and animal ambassadors will drop in periodically to help out! Space is limited to 15 children per session. Class space is filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

This program is included with museum admission and free for AM&G members.

Join us for a special Little Explorers class in collaboration with Alabama Public Television (APT) Tuesday, October 20th! We’ll explore all things elephants with a preview of Sesame Street Nature and the Great Elephant Adventure, featuring Elmo and Abby, an elephant-themed activity, and up close encounters with some of the elephant’s African neighbors. This program is included with museum admission and free for AM&G members.
