Make Your Own Snow Globe
Saturday, February 4
10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
The days are getting longer, but that doesn’t mean you have to forget all the fun you’ve had this winter! Create your own snow globe to commemorate your favorite winter activity or recreate a favorite winter spot in the Garden.
SOLD OUT
Water, Water Everywhere
Saturday, March 3
10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
How do you use water? Where does it come from and where does it go? We’ll investigate water on the Wasatch Front and perform simple experiments to find out more about the water used at the Garden and in your very own home.
Shamrock Surprise
Saturday, March 17
10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
It’s St. Patrick’s Day, and the Sprout House is going green! Join us for a St. Patrick’s celebration as we learn about the holiday and the significance of shamrocks in the festivities. Participants will even get to plant their own shamrock to take home and enjoy throughout the season.
Rain Painting
Saturday, April 14
10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
It’s time for April showers but what’s a child to do when it’s pouring outside? Join us as we learn about the rain and create a cool art project. The paintings you create will look impressive on their own, but their true potential will be unveiled once combined with rainy weather.
Incredible, Edible Bulbs
Saturday, April 21
10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
Some flowers grow from bulbs, and while you won’t find any daffodils or tulips in your pantry there are plenty of bulbs – and bulb imposters – we eat every day! Join us to discover what bulbs are all about and have fun cooking a simple dish to share.
Upcycled Birdhouses
Saturday, May 5
10:00 AM - 11:30 AM
Birds are beginning their warm weather return to Utah, but is there anywhere for them to live in your yard? Create a birdhouse for your feathered friends to inhabit once they make their way home. Different materials will be provided for participants to make their own upcycled, one-of-a-kind creation!
