MAY FIELD TRIP
Trailside Museum of Natural History!
Date: May 16th
Time: 10am-12pm
Cost: free
Address: 738 Thatcher Ave, River Forest, IL
• Street parking is available on Thatcher Ave. The museum does have a parking lot off of Chicago Avenue, but Google may struggle to navigate to it, so check your map before you go (it's just above Thatcher Glenn Pond on the map)
Weather permitting, we will try to take a guided nature hike (wear appropriate clothing as some trails are unpaved). The center also has a pond and outdoor play area. Depending on time and the weather, we may have some guided time inside the museum. If our outdoor time goes long, we should still be able to tour the museum at our own leisure.
For families with younger children (4 & under), there is an indoor play area as well as a "story trail" outside. The "story trail" will showcase the book "Stick and Stone" by Beth Ferry. Usually, there are enlarged pages of the book set on posts, in order, down a short trail to encourage taking a walk. They've also advertised a free, small, story-related craft kit available in the museum.
If interested: Please sign up in the teacher's lounge or rsvp
