The Prospect Park Alliance offers family-friendly programming every day during midwinter recess.
Nature Around Us, 12-3 pm: Enjoy different seasonal discovery stations and nature-themed activities that introduce families to the plants, insects, and animals that call the park home. The Lake and Lullwater are home to many plants and animals. Help test the water quality and investigate pond samples that are filled with living organisms.

Winter Wilderness Walk, 3-4 pm: Learn about the Great Backyard Bird Count and search for your favorite “Backyard Bird.” Find woodpeckers, chickadees, and nuthatches eating from feeders along Prospect Park’s nature trails.
