three garden sites set up as lively, innovative, hands-on, knees-on, and minds-on interactive museums of nature right in the middle of one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world. The Everett Children's Adventure Garden, a 12-acre indoor and outdoor wonderland with 40 activities for visitors to investigate plants and follow in the footsteps of scientists; the Mitsubishi Wild Wetland Trail, a fascinating natural ecosystem with engaging exhibits along the way; and the Ruth Rea Howell Family Garden, where people of all ages dig, plant, tend, and harvest, are all wonderful opportunities for children to get hooked on nature and science!

The registration fee is $275 until August 15, $325 after. For information, please contact Marge Kiely, Public Programs, The New York Botanical Garden; telephone: 718-817-8157; email: Mkiely@nybg.org.
