Arb Assisted Field Trips

The Arboretum at Flagstaff is excited to introduce parent led Arb Assisted Field Trips throughOctober 31st!  To participate, register your child(ren) here and our Education ProgramsManager will send a digital field trip packet of background information and at home activities related to the field trip and will set up a time with you to come to The Arboretum for your field trip experience. Once you arrive at The Arb, you will find a container with all of the materials you will need to lead a fun, successful field trip with your children.

This new program begins with our most popular field trip: Five Alive Senses. In this field trip children learn more about their five senses and how they can be used to interact with, discover, and navigate their environment. Children will observe nature using all five senses in the gardens at The Arb and will have the opportunity to describe their perceptions of sights, sounds, smells, feelings and tastes; compare and contrast similar objects; and observe that plants are useful to humans and have a historical context in Northern Arizona. This is a great opportunity to take learning outside and explore nature in a safe and healthy way.

This field trip is suitable for children grades K-3 and adheres to Arizona State Standards and is not required for grade progression; we are offering this as an optional additional learning opportunity. For more information about this field trip, contact Helena Murray at Helena.Murray@thearb.org.
