Little Birds Weekend Single Event Spring Classes

Prior to registering, please visit the Little Birds FAQs for information about the classes. 

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 ages 8 months 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.

These single event weekend day classes offer families a chance to participate in one or all of these Little Birds classes for just $23 per class.

The majority of class time is spent outdoors. In case of bad weather, the class will be inside the building. 

Cost for each class: $23

Sunday, April 26 (10:00 AM to 11:30 AM) Seeds & Blossoms -  Get ready to grow alongside the spring blooms as we delve into the magical world of plants, seeds and flowers with a nature walk, storytelling and hands-on art experiences. 

Saturday, May 16 – (12:30 PM to 2:00 PM) Mud, Glorious Mud - Unleash your inner amphibian and get down in the mud for a day of immersive outdoor play! Don’t be afraid to get dirty (in fact, please come prepared to) as we explore all the fun things we can do with marvelous, marvelous mud.
