Take the Kids: Go on a leprechaun scavenger hunt at Prairie Ridge Ecostation
Go on a hunt for leprechauns at the outdoor learning lab for the N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences.
Posted — UpdatedIt's the outdoor research and learning lab for the N.C. Museum of Natural Sciences in west Raleigh at 1671 Gold Star Dr., Raleigh, just off Reedy Creek Road and not far from the N.C. Museum of Art.
Prairie Ridge's nature playground also has been a popular play space for kids during the last several years, but it remains closed for now because of COVID. But it is offering a drop-in, family friendly activity through March 20.
"When you arrive, keep an eye out for the first leprechaun, who is stationed just past our entry kiosk," according to the website. "He has helpful guidance on which way the other leprechauns have gone!"
If you go, know that it can get a bit muddy if it's rained recently. So be prepared. And trail strollers and infant carriers are best for the tiniest hikers as the trails are mulch, dirt or grass and include some small hills.
