After School Programs are Here!! Join us at our Frog Hall and McLaren Park locations! Tree Frog Treks will teach fun interactive after school science enrichment programs that introduce kids to concepts in biology, chemistry, physics, earth sciences and natural history. Our programs also allow them to meet live reptiles and amphibians face-to-face. All of our lead teachers have college degrees and all have been trained by Tree Frog Treks to teach our curriculum and introduce ...children to live reptiles and amphibians. These programs are a great way to get your kids outside in the fresh air after a day of digital learning inside. Students will be grouped in stable cohorts of 14 kids for the entire 3-week session.

Join Mr. Science on his Green 15 for a return to Balmy Alley! Just a reminder, we're currently offering our FREE Distance Learning program for everyone at home who would still like to connect with TFT! Read on for more details:... Tree Frog Treks is offering FREE Wild Science Distance Learning content for our community! We know it’s been a challenging time for everyone, but one way we can help is to offer some of our award winning and engaging science curriculum to our Tree Frog Trekkers who are learning from home these days! Once you register for the program with us, we will add your student’s name to our Digital Classroom roster and you will be sent a separate link to join in. Then you can access all the lessons we'll be posting to help keep your student engaged and learning while at home! We’re using the website See Saw as a host for our online classrooms, which allows our naturalists to exchange feedback and encouragement with our students! We hope this will foster a sense of connection and collaborative learning that has been an important part of TFT since the start. We'll be adding new activities, content and videos over the next days and weeks, so please check in regularly! We will send out links to the digital classroom daily during regular business hours. If you've registered outside of normal business hours, please be aware that we will send your access link the following business day. The links are not sent out automatically at the time of registration since we need to add your child’s name to our roster prior to inviting them to join the classroom. Please be patient with us as this is a new style of educating for Tree Frog Treks! Please note that the program is FREE for all to take part in, but we do ask those that are able to consider making a donation to help support Tree Frog Treks (you’ll be given the opportunity to donate once you register). We appreciate you!
