Flight in Nature: Open House
November 24 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
FreeEvent Navigation
Learn about the four groups of animals that rule the sky: insects, reptiles, dinosaurs and birds, and mammals. Join Hancock Park District for a talk about how flight works, why these animals would want to fly, and how their flight differs from one another. Also, learn about the animals that pretend to fly by gliding, and how gliding and flying are different. Have fun comparing your arm span to the wingspan of some of the largest and smallest creatures to every fly. Children who attend can create a craft and coloring page.
Meet at the Discovery Center. This free program is open to all ages. Registration is not required.
