Children's Stories on the Parkway

By Andrea Z. RSS Fri, June 15, 2012

Join the Parkway Children's Department as we celebrate summer on the Parkway.

Mondays at 10:30 a.m. from June 18 - August 6, staff will present a nature-inspired story. We will be joined by staff from the Philadelphia Parks & Recreation Department who will present a nature-inspired craft. This program is designed to connect kids to their environment using the amenities of Sister Cities Park. This program is for kids ages 4 to 6 (older and younger siblings are welcome).

Before or after the program be sure to look at the wonderful Children’s Discovery Garden, Boat Pond, and Fountain.
