Have you ever seen the animals at Liberty Science Center playing with toys, decorations, or other odds and ends? Those are what we call enrichment activities. We give them to our animals to keep them mentally and physically stimulated.

And now's your chance to help out! Every day during Conservation Week (April 2 – 8), you'll be able to build your own enrichment activity for our animals using safe materials. Our animals can't wait to see what you make for them!

Make sure to also take photos of your enrichment activity and share it with us online using hashtag #LibertyScienceCenter.
