Birding for Children

Spark Bird: Igniting Children’s Connection to Nature through Birding.

This program is intended for parents and grandparents, childcare workers and educators, or other adults interested in connecting kids with nature. Watching birds with children can ignite their lifelong appreciation for nature – and it provides a fun way to spend time outdoors. Join us to learn why birding matters and get ideas to help kids appreciate these amazingly diverse animals.
