The McDowell Sonoran Conservancy holds Children’s Learning and Play Festival

Posted

The North Hall at Westworld of Scottsdale will be full of learning opportunities from the McDowell Sonoran Conservancy’s expert education team and children’s authors from Story Monster and DinoCrew Entertainment June 24 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m as  part of  The Children’s Learning and Play Festiva presented by Scottsdale Unified School District.

Attendees will also see the Sonoran desert come to life with wildlife experiences from Southwest Wildlife.

With face painters, characters like Clifford the Big Red Dog, Disney Princesses, and Baxter Bobcat, performances from Jan Sandwich, and much more, the fun will continue all day long.

“We are so excited to host this amazing educational family event,” Claire Musser, conservancy education manager said in a press release. “Connecting kids with STEAM topics in a fun, engaging way can spark an interest or passion that will last a lifetime. With the incredible group of educators at the Festival, parents are sure to be hearing about it the whole drive home – and probably longer.”

The Children’s Learning and Play Festival is made possible by generous sponsors like: Scottsdale Unified School District, Arizona PBS, the City of Scottsdale, Story Monster, COX, HonorHealth, and Charles Schwab.
The festival is a free event to attend. Parking at the event is free, strollers are allowed, and there will be food available for purchase at the event.
