Swing by the Connecticut River Museum for stories take-home craft activities that engage kids with the Connecticut River’s stunning wildlife and rich history! Perfect for young learners 4+ and their caregivers. Check in at the front desk upon arrival.

Join us for a spring-themed River Tales to read Whose Nest?, written by Victoria Cochrane, and illustrated by Guy Troughton. Can you guess whose nest? Take a peek into the nest and look at the clues that surround it —a feather, a footprint, a tasty food morsel — then turn the page to find out who really lives there. The animals depicted include a dormouse, a tree frog, an eagle, a rabbit, a mallard, and a bumblebee.
A program just for kids 4+ and their caregivers, River Tales includes a story, a craft activity, and an opportunity to get out on the dock to see some birds!
All River Tales reservations include Museum admission for one adult and one child and must be purchased in advance. Children MUST be accompanied by a parent/guardian during this event.
