Tales and Trails @ Meadowbrook

You might pass by a stone without a second thought—but what if that same stone was a world of wonder, depending on how you see it? Join us at Meadowbrook Nature Preserve for a cozy Tales & Trails adventure as we read A Stone Sat Still by Brendan Wenzel.

After the story, we’ll head out on the trail to explore the many perspectives of the natural world. Through guided observation, we’ll take a closer look at stones, logs, and other small features in the landscape, imagining how they might be experienced by different animals and living things. Is it a resting place, a hiding spot, or a home?

We’ll wrap up with a hands-on activity, creating our own nature-inspired art that reflects how one simple object can be many things at once. This program encourages curiosity, creativity, and a deeper appreciation for the often-overlooked details of the outdoors.

Please come prepared to be outdoors for the entire program. A jacket, boots, and a water bottle are recommended.

Please RSVP through the website to reserve your spot; space is limited.
