Is your homeschool learner ready to become an ecologist? Join us at the Wildflower Center for Homeschool Days, where science and nature come to life through hands-on learning and outdoor exploration.

Designed for 2nd–6th grade learners (ages 8–12), each 90-minute session offers TEKS-aligned lessons, interactive activities, and the chance to apply new skills in our gardens. Families will investigate the natural world together while building observation skills, practicing data collection, and discovering cause and effect in nature.

Spring Sessions
