Super Scat -- Week Five of Summer Unplugged


Program for Week Five, July 26th - July 29th

About Summer Unplugged: Thanks to the generous support from Great River Hydro, The Nature Museum brings free environmental education programming to public libraries and the Bellows Falls Fish Ladder and Visitor Center during the summer months. These engaging free programs highlight topics related to the unique ecology and landscape of Northern New England.

Geared toward ages Pre-K through elementary grades, all ages are welcome. Programs will be 45 minutes long with dedicated time for a story reading and any nature-related questions you may have for our expert educators.

No registration is necessary. Library programs will be outdoors with lots of space for everyone, and inside during inclement weather. Join us to unplug, discover, and learn!

Super Scat! Species & Their Feces

What’s for dinner? We learn a lot from the natural world by investigating the scat that animals leave behind! Get ready to digest information on identifying excrement from our local fauna, and participate in creating your own oatmeal-based “scat” for identification! Please note, this activity involves touching food items.
