As soon as we walked through the door we got a warm welcome. The staff was very attentive to our kids and to us also. I especially liked handling Sophie the snake.

This picture is "not" Helen Schuler Nature centre in Lethbridge. Wrong picture shown here. Helen Schuler Nature Centre provides adult and children with information about local flora/fauna and has guided nature walks both daytime and evening. Excellent commentary on history of region.

Fun place for families, young and old alike to like about the animals and hands-on experience Lethbridge's River bottom in the Coulee. The setting under the High Level bridge is amazing!

Absolutely amazing, wonderful enthusiastic staff that clearly love their job! Got to hold a snake and pet a bird, learn about insects and plants and do a craft. The kids loved it and it was FREE!

They had a special wildflower teaching and hike for the girls. They explained about the crow , who lives there. The teachers were great, they really take time to give each girl an oppurtunity to shine in what knowledge they know and what they can learn

My kids and i had a great time! The volunteer and staff we talked to were so great with the kids. Got pictures of the kids holding a bull snake. The exhibit was small but good for the kids.
