This place is small but mighty. They offer 3 different color-coded scavenger hunts (on clip boards…read morenear the welcome desk) that kept my son occupied/entertained for over an hour. Plenty of neat animals and fish to see. A little gift shop as well. This place is free, which is honestly one of the best parts (in THIS economy!!). Perfect stop for elementary-aged kids to explore and learn. It's clean and there is plenty to see. Great find in downtown Little Rock - you just have to take the stairs or elevators behind the co-working space to access it!

I had some time to kill and stumbled across this place. This place is a first class nature center…read moreand the best thing about it is that it is free. It is situated behind the Museum of Discovery. It is kind of a weird spot to get to. You take a long walkway/overpass to an elevator, which you take down and then you are at the Center. They have a few picnic tables to sit at in the little plaza area in front of the Center. The Center opened in 2008 and spans 16,232 square feet . Parking here is pretty easy. You will find metered street parking in front of the walkway leading the the center and also in a reasonable walking distance. The meters run from about 8AM to 6PM and are free all other times, including weekends. This Center has an exhibit on fishing lures, trappers, an aquarium with native fish, stuffed eagles, live snakes, live turtles, and has the ultimate goal of explaining the role of fish and wildlife management. The Center also has a staff information booth, a gift shop, and a muti-purpose room that they were playing a movie on a loop. The staff there was very friendly. This was a nice and unexpected stop. A diamond in the rough. It was very informative, for adults a kids alike. I highly recommend checking this gem out. I spent about a half an hour here and enjoyed every minute.
