Insect Summer Olympics
June 8 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
FreeEvent Navigation
Kids will pretend to be insects as they compete in the Insect Summer Olympics. They will inch their way by crawling to the finish line like a caterpillar. They will jump like a grasshopper (grasshoppers can cover more than 3 feet in a single jump). Score will be kept. A European honeybee can pollinate up to 15 flowers in a single minute. How long will it take to fly around like a bee and pollinate 15 flowers with a yellow sticker? Kids will run like a cockroach that can cover 15 feet in 12 seconds. Join Hancock Park District and have some fun!
Meet at the Nature Play Area. This free program is open to children ages 8-10. Register online by 1 p.m. on Friday, June 7.
