PINE RIVER — Happy Dancing Turtle in Pine River offers classes for 4- and 5-year-olds to learn about sustainability and nature appreciation.

From 10-11:30 a.m. Monday, March 13, and continuing on the second and fourth Mondays of the month through May 22, the Tiny Turtles program will offer students time to explore the natural world around them at the Hunt Utilities Group Resilient Living Campus while learning about plants, animals and their habitats, and more.

“Based on the varied weather we’ve had this winter, spring is likely a great time for outdoor learning,” Program Coordinator Michelle Hoefs said in a news release.
