Interactive storytelling, bat facts game, and bat draw-along! Learn all about bat conservation and how vital and important bats are for the entire ecosystem (and how CUTE they are!) Perfect for tying into STEM and nature curriculum topics and also leading into conversations about peaceful protest, the power of art to make change, the climate, and what kids can do to help both their local bats and help wildlife on a global scale.

No need to book – just turn up!
