TERRESTRIALS PRESENTS: Wilderness Wonderland at Little Island

Bring your littles to Little Island for a FREE one-hour activity series featuring nature-inspired fun, hosted by WNYC and Radiolab’s family-friendly podcast, Terrestrials.

On Wednesday, August 6 and Thursday, August 7, from 10 AM to 11 AM, Little Island will transform into a wonderland of curiosity, creativity, and critters. With Terrestrials as your gentle guides, kids will sing, crawl, buzz, and bloom through a choose-your-own-adventure-style experience celebrating the wildlife of the land, sea, and air on and around Little Island.

Families can move freely between interactive stations across Little Island, including:

  • Music and movement sessions with Terrestrials host Lulu MIller and “songbud” Alan Goffinski 
  • A nature scavenger hunt.
  • Live specimen station with wildlife educators from Hudson River Park and Terrestrials producer, Ana González.
  • Terrestrials swag bags for the first 75 kids to complete the scavenger hunt
  • …and more!
