Science Saturday: Animals in Winter

Winter is here! Learn about the different ways animals deal with the coolest season of the year through fun experiments at the YSI Nature Center in Vasona Park. Learn why polar bears have black skin, make your own monarch butterfly, test whether feathers get wet, use a blubber glove, feel soft fur, and more! Science Saturdays are also a chance to see our wonderful group of live animals, including, toads, newts, snakes, chinchillas, and more. You may even have the opportunity to touch a live animal!… Show more This event is FREE. The Vasona Nature Center is located next to the Parks Administrative Building, up the hill. Stay to the right as you drive through the park. We are next to the last parking lot. This is indoors, and would be a great thing to do with your family on a sunny or rainy day!
