At Great Green Adventures: Weather Watcher, kids will observe and identify changes in the weather and how this seasonal change affects the plants in their garden.
Great Green Adventures are drop-in activities that explore a special part of the Missouri Botanical Garden on the third Saturday of each month. Learn about plants, nature and green living through hands-on activities, journaling, stories and games.
Great Green Adventures are designed for ages 6–12. Adults may accompany up to three children. Younger siblings may attend.
