Plant Needs: Wonderful Water · July Seeds to Sprouts

Little ones will love splashing into science at this special Seeds to Sprouts session all about water! Through playful, hands-on activities, preschoolers will explore how water moves and discover why it's so important for keeping both plants and people healthy. The program combines storytelling, age-appropriate STEM experiments, and guided exploration of the Garden's beautiful outdoor spaces — perfect for curious minds ages 2-5 who are just beginning to understand the natural world around them. The program meets Friday, July 17, at 10:00 AM at Huntsville Botanical Garden on Bob Wallace Avenue. Garden members pay $10 per child (with adults included free), while non-members pay $15 per child plus $25 per adult. An adult must accompany each child, making this a wonderful opportunity for quality time together while learning. Since classes take place outdoors, dress for the weather and consider bringing sunscreen and water bottles — you'll be exploring the Garden's grounds as part of the experience. This is one of the Seeds to Sprouts series designed specifically for the preschool set, so expect activities tailored to short attention spans and small hands. The combination of story time, experiments, and garden exploration keeps toddlers and preschoolers engaged while introducing them to fundamental science concepts in a fun, pressure-free environment. If your little one loves splashing in puddles or watering plants at home, this session will build on that natural curiosity.
