Have you ever wondered what the building blocks of a plant look like? What lets plants breath? How do feathers work? Together we will dive into the microscopic world of small things! We will learn how to use a microscope, what plant, animal, and fungi cells look like, and go on a nature hike to take a closer look at the small things we miss everyday.
