Let's party!
Celebrate your young naturalist's birthday
at the Greenbelt Nature Center

Each party will be directed by
the Greenbelt's Education Department,
which has been in operation for more than 30 years.
We will make sure the party is as educational as it is fun!

Flying Fun
Birds, bats, butterflies, oh my! The Greenbelt is constantly a-flutter with creatures that fly. Explore the Nature Center trail in search of sights [and sounds!] of our flying friends, learn what makes things fly, and make a unique craft to take home.

Rugged Reptiles
The Greenbelt is slithering and crawling with reptiles. Explore the Nature Center trail and learn about creatures with scales and shells that live here. Meet our resident reptiles, Cornelius Vanderbilt the corn snake and Chong the box turtle. Go on a scavenger hunt in search of snakes, and create a beaded snake to take home.

Furry Fuzzy Friends
Chipmunks, squirrels, raccoons, and other magnificent mammals scurry through the Greenbelt . Hear exciting stories about mammals, look for signs of mammals on the Nature Center trail, play the opossum game, and make a mammal mask to take home.

Woodland Wonderland
Calling all wizards, princesses, fairies, and gnomes! The forest is an enchanted place, filled with magical creatures and wondrous plants. Explore the wonders of the Nature Center trail, look for signs of gnomes, hear legends of enchanted forest creatures, and create your very own magic wand that you can use to cast spells on others to help protect the park and the planet!

A Present From the Past
Party in the Greenbelt like it’s 1399, when much of Staten Island looked the way the Greenbelt does today. Walk the Nature Center trail in search of plants used by the Lenape Indians who called Staten Island home, sing and dance to Native songs, and weave your own turtle keychain to take home.

Show the world you care about environmental education for children.
