Wisconsin Public Radio is proud to sponsor the “Nature Cat: Backyard and Beyond” exhibit at the Children’s Imaginarium in Wausau! Join us for the exhibit’s opening day on Saturday, Sept. 26 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. to check out the new exhibit, stop by the WPR table, and even meet Nature Cat himself!

In recognition of Our World: Worldwide Day of Play, admission to the Children’s Imaginarium will be free for all visitors throughout the day. Children’s museums around the world will celebrate by encouraging children and families to get active, explore, create, and experience the joy of learning through play.

This interactive traveling exhibit, inspired by the popular PBS Kids television series, encourages children ages 2–10+ and their families to discover the wonders of the natural world through imaginative, hands-on play.

We hope to see you and your families there! As Nature Cat says, “Tally Ho!”
