STEM Goes Wild!
- Grades: K - 5th
- Time: Activities 10:00 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. with 20 minute animal demo
- Fee: $175
This is your chance to discover all the secrets at the zoo! Your classes will receive a special map and secret information so they can track down the many stations and mini programs throughout the park! These activities may take the form of science experiments, art projects, data collection, animal observations, and more! Each class will also receive a timed ticket for a private animal meet and greet!
Schools can also book a private STEM Goes Wild day for an entire grade or school or join us on one of our pre-planned days!
Animal Super Powers – K – 2nd Grade
