Created in partnership with the Cascades Raptor Center, this kit is designed to extend the learning, connection and piqued interest of children after a visit to the Cascades Raptor Center. Or, if you are out of town and want to bring the wonder of these amazing birds of prey tlo your home, this is a great alternative!
Our educational, at-home science and art activities will keep your child engaged for hours, and deepen their love for nature.
15% of every kit sold will be donated to the Cascades Raptor Center. The Cascades Raptor Center reopened by reservation only on June 3rd, and after months of closure from COVID-19, your support will make a big difference.
This kit is geared toward children age 5 and up, although kids of all ages would find the owl pellet dissection activity intriguing! Children younger than 7 will likely need hands-on support from a grown-up.
The Birds of Prey kit includes the following:
-
An owl pellet dissection activity.* This comes with one medium-sized barn owl pellet, forceps, a wooden dissection stick, magnifying glass, bone chart and lab worksheet and full instructions. (Additional pellet dissection kits can be added on for $10 each)
