Kids Week: Campfire Story Time

Wednesday, December 31, 2025

1:00 p.m.–2:00 p.m.

Even when school's out, our parks are still the city's natural classroom! Bring your kids to parks throughout the city during Winter Break. With programs led by our Urban Park Rangers, kids will get to experience nature in a hands-on and fun way. Join the Urban Park Rangers for a cozy campfire and story telling session. Rangers will read books and use puppets paired with visual props. Dress warm and bring a blanket!
