Children 18 months to 5 years and their families are invited to join Bella the Begonia at BRIT on the first Wednesday of each month. We’ll discuss nature, read a story, sing and move, plus a family nature challenge!

Can’t make it on Wednesday? Check out our sister program Little Sprouts Book and Garden Club on the third Tuesday of each month. Both programs focus on pre-literacy skills for early learners by featuring similar activities with new books each month – the difference is the location and days in which they occur.
