About the event

This short 30–45 minute webinar is designed for educators, homeschoolers, and parents who want to inspire the next generation of nature stewards. We’ll explore when and how to start talking to youth about invasive species in fun and age-appropriate ways. You’ll learn why kids are a powerful force in citizen science and walk away with a toolkit of ready-to-go activities that build curiosity and connect young learners to their local ecosystems. This is a perfect session for anyone looking to engage youth in meaningful, hands-on learning that helps nature thrive.
