Inspiring Preschoolers to Explore and Discover

Thank you for your interest in bringing a group to CuriOdyssey!

Please check back in late August to register for group visits during the 2025–2026 school year.

Preschoolers are naturally curious and instinctual scientists. CuriOdyssey’s science workshops foster this age group’s fascination with the world and provide age-appropriate opportunities to engage in authentic science exploration. These programs provide learners with a solid foundation in both science and other subject areas.

CuriOdyssey is a nonprofit and relies on program fees and contributed support to provide care for our animals and give the superpower of science to the next generation of critical thinkers.

Wildlife Program: What’s on the Menu?

Did you know that animals eat different things? Animals are able to eat certain foods based on where they live and what they look like (their body). Students will learn about tooth structure, habitats and adaptations of herbivores, omnivores, carnivores, decomposers and experience a live animal feeding.
