Grow With Us
Welcome to a wild world of play-based learning at Brevard Zoo! Here, little ones embark on a journey of discovery, where creativity flourishes and essential skills for future academic adventures are built. Through hands-on exploration and interactive learning in the Zoo’s natural setting, we nurture a deep connection with wildlife and a lifelong appreciation for the environment.
Nature Explorers

Our Nature Explorers program offers enriching opportunities for young children and their caregivers to engage with the natural world in a safe, healthy and joyful environment. Designed for children ages 2 to 5 and one accompanying caregiver, this program encourages discovery, creativity and play alongside our experienced zoo educators. In our exceptional nature space, participants will encounter nature play, process-oriented art, stories and animal visitors. To ensure a high-quality experience and for safety reasons, we kindly require that each child be accompanied by one caregiver and siblings outside the 2 to 5 age range not attend.
