Inspire an early love for nature through our Pre-K classes. Lively activities and bird encounters make it easy to learn and remember fun facts about our feathered friends.

Feathered Friends   NEW!
From peacocks to parrots to penguins, all birds have... feathers! Through interactive story telling, lots of touchable feathers, and a visit from some of the National Aviary’s “feathered friends,” children will learn what makes feathers so special.


Penguins, Penguins Everywhere!
Do you like to swim? Would you like to wear a feathered coat? How about eating fish for breakfast? Preschoolers will learn what it takes to swim, waddle, slide and even eat like a penguin through interactive story telling and a special visit from one of the National Aviary’s African Penguins!


Who’s In There?
There is always something hatching at the National Aviary! In this class, students will learn about the egg and the different forms of life that can grow inside. Through interactive story telling and touchable eggs, the amateur naturalist will discover what is hatching from the incredible egg!


Mother Nature’s Diner
Ever wonder what birds eat in the wild? Do they eat worms, seeds, or fruit? Maybe even a mouse? Meet “Mother Nature” as she shares with the children what birds eat through an interactive puppet show.
