FIREFLY EXPLORERS
Come explore with us in Chesapeake at Firefly Explorers Nature School! Join us on Tuesdays at a lovely park in the Deep Creek area. From squirrels to mushrooms, each week we’ll cover a different topic within our theme. Classes are designed for 3-5-year-olds (& their caregivers!) and may include nature walks, guided activities, free play, storytime, crafts, mud play, and more!
