Stop by the Library and see our Backyard Wilderness Exhibit. It is a 10’ x 6’ x 6’ interactive display focusing on the basics of the ecosystem. The featured species all have territories that span much of North America, and the idea is to let kids start exploring within the exhibit, then take their curiosity outside into their own backyard, parks and other outdoor spaces. The display features:
¨ Eye-catching photorealistic artwork
¨ Scavenger hunt of 15 different plants and animals hidden in the exhibit
¨ A beautiful durable printed carpet
¨ “Telescopes” that provide more information about the creatures they’re pointing at
¨ Tips on how to become an outdoor explorer
¨ Inspiring quotes hidden in the tree roots
¨ A companion popup banner with a scavenger hunt cheat sheet of all and next steps for further engagement.
