The Endangered Wolf Center will hold its very popular Messy Play Day event three days this summer due to the popularity of the event. And it's no mystery why kids love Messy Play Day. Little ones can get as messy as they want as they play in sand, mud and dirt, experiment with water color paints, learn how to make nature crafts and have their faces painted.
Messy Play Day envelopes children in nature through tactile activities that engage all of their senses. Parents, be sure to dress your kids in clothes you don't mind getting dirty (or just throwing away), prepare for the car ride home with a change of clothes, and bring plastic table cloths or blankets to cover the car seats. The Endangered Wolf Center is located at 6750 Tyson Valley Road in Eureka.
Messy Play Day will be held on Sundays: June 12, July 17 and August 21 from 9 a.m. to noon. It's for kids who are old enough to walk up to age 5.
Cost is $8 per child and parents are free. During Messy Play Day, special mini-tours of the Endangered Wolf Center are available for an additional $10 per person for adults. There is no charge for the tour for children participating in Messy Play Day.
Reservations are recommended. For more information and to register, visit endangeredwolfcenter.org or call 636-938-5900.
