Atlanta Botanical Garden

Each week in the Children’s Garden, expert horticulturists feature a kid-friendly gardening activity, like seed planting, watering or harvesting, both to keep our Garden beautiful and connect our youngest guests with nature.

Drop by the Fuqua Conservatory lobby to watch the frogs jump into action when presented with their meals. An amphibian specialist will share fun facts and answer questions about these captivating creatures. Public frog feedings allow visitors to observe one of the most interesting aspects of these amphibians – their feeding behaviors. Most frogs have long sticky tongues that shoot out at prey. Some, like Poison frogs, are able to do this with such incredible speed and accuracy that all visitors notice are flies disappearing. Others, like the fringed leaf frog, are dramatic feeders that stuff the crickets into their mouths with their hands.

Enjoy engaging and fun family activities celebrating nature and the beautiful plants all around us! Be sure to catch special performances of Music of Latin America with Havana Son.
