We think our garden is a peaceful paradise but really it's a jungle out there! Most animals are insects and our gardens are full of creepy crawlers, as well as birds and other animals. Why do we need so many living things in the garden? The Kids in the Garden series encourages environmental stewardship and promotes a healthy lifestyle while the kids (and adults) enjoy discovering the science of our natural world. Each program includes hands on activities with project lists. Activity: Create A Backyard Habitat.
