The Prairie Oak Nature Center offers fun environmental education programs for all ages. Stop by the Nature Center or look in the Leawood Parks and Recreation Guide to see programs that are currently scheduled. In addition to the scheduled programs our on-site naturalist will work with teachers, youth leaders and other organizations to provide a program just for their group.

The Nature Center Activity Room is available to rent for small receptions or meetings. The activity room offers seating for up to 30 people.

Celebrate your child's birthday at the Nature Center. We can design a birthday program that can include nature crafts, outdoor adventures, animal presentations, and games.

Call 913-681-0902 for information on programs, birthdays and room rentals.

Many exciting things will be happening at the Nature Center over the next year. We will be preparing new exhibits; obtaining live species of native animals; and developing a beautiful wildlife garden next to our outdoor patio. A bird watching area will also be situated within our garden for easy viewing from our library or patio.

So come visit our exhibits, stop by our library, stroll through the gardens, and discover different habitats along our two-mile walking trail. There is something for everyone!
