Family Photo Scavenger: Blossoms & Butterflies

@ Frelinghuysen Arboretum

June is peak butterfly season, and what better place to spot these incredible insects than an arboretum? Bring your family and see all the colors a butterfly can be — and the flowers that support them. Finish the scavenger hunt and get a prize.

June is peak butterfly season, and Frelinghuysen Arboretum is about as good a place as any to prove that to your kids. The scavenger hunt has your family photographing butterflies and the flowers that feed them, and if you finish the whole thing, there’s a prize waiting, which is a stronger motivator than any parenting speech we’ve ever given. It runs 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, June 13, so you’ve got a generous window to wander, snap, and maybe let the six-year-old carry the phone for once. Check the Morris County Parks listing for registration details.
