About Homeschool Day

The topic for this spring will be Food Webs! Learn about why and how animals eat what they eat. We will explore the basic concepts of decomposers, herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores, as well as some specialty eaters from around the world.

These educational adventures will include a variety of animal encounters, activities, crafts, learning stations, and keeper talks. Participants will also receive take-home materials to continue learning at home!

The program at BHA is appropriate for grades K-8. The program at GPZ is appropriate for grades preK-5.
