They don’t use blueprints or fancy tools, but animals can be amazing builders by using natural materials like leaves, sticks and even spit! Whether it’s for nests, homes, camouflage or catching prey, animals have a lot of reasons for their architecture. At this camp session we will explore the construction skills of animals, and build creations of our own. While we are at it, we will learn about the features of Hitchcock Center’s own “Living Building” and the choices we made to make our building kind to the planet. We will also utilize our own abilities as animal builders to work on our outdoor classroom spaces. As always, hikes, projects, songs and games are all part of the fun!
