Family Photo Scavenger: Blossoms & Butterflies
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. This self-guided photo scavenger hunt runs 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and sends families roaming the grounds to photograph butterflies and the blooms that feed them. Finish the whole hunt and you’ll score a prize, which is the kind of low-stakes victory that feels surprisingly good when you’re eight years old (or, honestly… wait, we’re cutting that word). Bring your phone, your crew, and the competitive energy of a sibling who takes scavenger hunts way too seriously.
