[February 01, 2014]McLEAN —
Sugar Grove Nature Center announces a Little Wonders: Little Tappers
program to be presented three times:
Wednesday, Feb. 19,
10-11:30 a.m.
Wednesday, Feb. 19,
1-2:30 p.m.
Saturday, March 15, 1-2:30 p.m.
This program is designed especially for children 3-5 years with
an adult chaperone. Participants will sing songs and make a craft
while learning how to make maple sirup and will listen to a sirup
story. Then, each child will get a turn at tree tapping and taste
the real thing. The majority of this program will be indoors, and in
the event of extremely cold temperatures, it will be adapted to be
completely inside.
Registration and adult chaperone are required. The fee is $5 for
child members of the nature center and $8 for nonmembers.
Sugar Grove Nature Center is in historic Funks Grove, just south
of Bloomington-Normal. For a map and directions, membership and

(The nature center uses the traditional Funks Grove spelling of
sirup.)
