Children can explore how they are connected to the world and its natural systems during Green Week, a celebration of environmental awareness taking place daily, March 13-19, at Kidspace Children's Museum in Pasadena.
Experiential, interactive, and fun programs unique to Kidspace will increase children's understanding of how they can positively interact with nature in their day-to-day lives. Activities will include the exciting debut of the Eco-lympics relay exploring recycling, alternative energy, and the ecology of diet, and a new Kidspace short program on photosynthesis, entitled, "Why Plants Are Green" taking place in the outdoor Stone Hollow Amphitheater daily through the week.
The week's highlights will include a day of ecologically related film screenings for kids on Wednesday, March 15, a tour through the Arroyo Seco Watershed led by Jeff Chapman of the Arroyo Seco Foundation at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, March 18, and a Nature of Wildworks interactive presentation of native Southern California animals at 1 p.m. on Sunday, March 19.
