MASON CITY – Award-winning author and storyteller Kevin Strauss will be at the Lime Creek Nature Center to present two story-telling sessions on Monday, November 9 from 6 – 8 p.m.
Strauss has been using stories to entertain, educate and inspire children and adults for more than a decade. He will present the following:
6 p.m. – Nature Tales (Pre-school – 2nd Grade): Explore the natural world with stories, songs and animal props in this interactive “virtual fieldtrip” program. Participants will hear animal folktales and real life stories about the animals that live in the woods and fields right near their houses. They’ll even learn how to listen like a deer and howl like a wolf. “Ahhooooo!”
7 p.m – Stories From the Bird World (elementary age): No matter where you go, you will see birds. Learn science and story reasons for how birds fly, why birds are important and how birds help us every day in this engaging and nature-inspired program.
These sessions are free, but registration is required. Call 641-423-5309 to register or for more information. This program is funded by River City Kiwanis.
