For a charming, homespun touch, add buttons as seeds or sparkling soil minerals to finish your one-of-a-kind garden. Free with admission or a CME membership, while supplies last.

Buzzing Hive
We’re abuzz with excitement for this sweet little craft, where kiddos will build their own mini hive using sliced tubes—then add plenty of busy bees to bring it to life.
