Botanica is hosting different special activities on Wednesdays from April to October. The best part is that the activities are FREE with general admission. Wonder Wednesdays are geared toward children pre-K and under, but all ages are welcome. Once you enter Botanica, the front desk will have more information for each Wonder Wednesday. All of the activities come and go except for storytime.
