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!
