Playful Pollinators

We are excited to be offering a museum exploration element to our Families Together: Meet Ups classes! Classes will gather at the National Mall for an outdoor exploration and then the class will enter the museum for a closer look at an object. Meet Ups mission is to create an atmosphere of lifelong learning. Families are invited to spend time together exploring a topic inspired by the Smithsonian's collections. Different activities are available for infants, toddlers, preschoolers, and early elementary aged children. Each Meet Up will focus on a specific artwork or object and a related topic. Play stations will be available for the hour, and an educator-led experience, centered around the object, will take place inside a museum. Explore, wonder, observe, and learn!
