Join the Jamaica Bay-Rockaway Parks Conservancy and Marine Park Alliance for Park Pals Pop-Up at the Carro Center in Marine Park on Saturday, 9/27!
Park Pals is a fun and engaging early childhood program designed for children ages 0-6 and their caregivers. This fall, we’ll explore the fascinating world of pollinators and the coastal habitats they call home. Through hands-on science activities, sensory play, a storytime read-aloud, and a nature walk, little ones will learn about native species like monarch butterflies, bumblebees, and cabbage moths, and the plants they love, including milkweed, seaside goldenrod, and black-eyed susans. This special pop-up session brings the joy of outdoor discovery to families while sparking curiosity about urban wildlife and the natural wonders of Jamaica Bay.
Date and Time: Saturday, 9/27/2025 from 10:00AM to 11:30AM
Address: Carro Community Center, 3000 Fillmore Ave. & Madison Pl, Brooklyn, NY 11234
Contact: Education@JBRPC.org
To ensure you have the best experience, we suggest that you check the weather and note that we will be outdoors for portions of the program. The outdoor walk is a highlight of the Park Pals program, but in case of extreme weather or cold temperatures, the walk will be cancelled and the program will be primarily indoors with opportunities for self-guided outdoor exploration.
