Little Birds Weekend (Saturday) Mini-Series Class

Designed for infants ages 8 months through 3 years and their caregivers.

Prior to registering, please review the Little Birds FAQs HERE. 

Young children are naturally curious about the world outside. There is so much to discover: sticks, pebbles, animals, plants, puddles! Irvine’s Little Birds builds upon this curiosity through a semester-long weekly class for children birth to 3 years alongside a caregiver. Together, children and their caregivers discover the wonders of wildlife through age-appropriate activities like live animal encounters, nature walks, songs, stories, and art experiences.

Minimum recommended age: 8 months

Maximum age: Three years

Class Cost: $154.00 (non-member price) for the spring session. Members with a Pacesetter membership ($100.00) and above receive membership discounts on the cost of the class. 

Class Schedule: The 6 weeks of spring mini-series semester class begins the week of Saturday, April 18 and ends on Saturday, May 23 (make-up day if Irvine cancels a class is May 30).
