Itasca State Park Nature Program for April

MARCH 2026

Circle Time Under the Pines: C is for Colors

Friday, March 20, 2026, from 11-11:45 a.m.

Meet at the Jacob V. Brower Visitor Center (look for the big building under the big pine trees.)

Children 2-5 years old, come explore Itasca as we learn about nature through stories, songs, crafts, and outdoor discovery. Bring your outdoor clothes as we will be outside exploring nature if weather allows. NOTES: Adults must accompany children. Consider bringing a picnic lunch and enjoying your noon meal around the fireplace in the visitor center lobby after the program.

Get ready for the return of our spring migrating birds. Choose to construct either a bird house or bird feeder to welcome back our nesting birds. Families and individuals are welcome!
