Explore the wonders of the natural world through hands-on activities inspired by Iowa’s plants, animals, and wildlife. Get curious, make discoveries, and find out what it’s like to be a naturalist!

Pete won in our Use Your VOICE Day election, and his platform was to help kids learn what a Naturalist does. “Go wild” with us and check out a day of nature-inspired fun.

Special activities will take place throughout the museum from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. and are included with museum admission.
