A Nature-Loving Adventure for Curious Kids!

Does your child love bugs, trees, animals or just being outdoors?
In Eco-Ecology Explorers, children become young scientists, nature protectors, and outdoor adventurers!
Each week, we dive into hands-on discovery through outdoor play, storytelling, and creative projects. It’s a great mix of science, imagination, and eco-awareness.

What We’ll Explore:

• Bugs & Insects – Go on exciting bug safaris and meet nature’s tiniest helpers!
• Trees & Leaves – Discover how trees help us breathe and shelter animals.
• Water Wonders – Explore the magic of rain, rivers, and the water cycle.
• Recycling & Reusing – Learn how to become a planet-saving hero!

Every Eco Explorer Receives:
