LINCOLN, Neb. — The Nebraska Game and Parks Commission is hosting a new, virtual series designed for preschoolers. The free Nature Tails will be at 10 a.m. CST on Tuesdays, starting Jan. 12.

Each week, Game and Parks outdoor educators from across the state will kick off nature-themed sessions by reading a children’s book tailored to the theme. Afterward, educators will lead a quick activity for children and their families. The themes are:

  • Jan. 12 – Mammals
  • Jan. 19 – Making Observations
  • Jan. 26 – Owls
  • Feb. 2 – Groundhogs
  • Feb. 9 – Seeds
  • Feb. 16 – Wintertime Fun

No pre-registration is required. To participate, visit bit.ly/NatureTails to login and join the fun.

Stay up-to-date with these and other educational events through Facebook/NEGameandParks.
