Grandparent & Me Story Walk: Over in a River – Flowing out to the Sea
By: Marianne Berkes
The great rivers of North America are teeming with life and on the pages of Over in a River—from blue herons in the Hudson to salmon in the Columbia, and from dragonflies in the Rio Grande to mallards in the St. Lawrence. Children will slither like water snakes and slide like otters while singing to the tune of "Over in a Meadow." And they'll count baby animals in watersheds all over North America! What a delightful way to learn about riparian habitats and geography at the same time!

The group will explore Erwin Clifford Park Trail, stopping at stations along the trail to read the story. Each station will bring the group to a next part of the story.  Following the story, the group will gather for a story related craft, enjoy a snack and explore the park.  Bring a water bottle - drinks and snacks will be provided.
The Story walk will take place at Clifford Park. An easy .50 mile walk.
Pre-registration is encouraged!
