This website shows different nature playstations/learning stations for kids. It is a supplier, but we can get ideas.


There is a Naturalist, Erica, from the Boston Nature Center that can help us in giving ideas and guiding us for a nature learning space for the school. She helped Haly School in Roslindale. Maybe we can meet or email her?
