Pre-K and K Classes

Bring your little ones to stretch their wings with our educators and birds in Tracy Aviary’s NEW Preschool and Kindergarten classes.

Our classes are offered every other week over a three-month period. Knowing how busy Moms’ and Dads’ schedules can be, each class will run as a weekday session, and a Saturday session. Classes feature a special bird visitor, a fun craft or activity, a snack, and an engaging story connecting with our age-appropriate themes. All are designed for parents to attend and participate with their child.

Classes can be taken in the full series of six or registered for individually. Our goal is to help your child make new friends and develop curiosity and comfort around their amazing bird neighbors. Therefore, series participation is recommended. Participants registering for the full series of six classes will receive a discount.
