Discovering Dirt: Dinosaur Cloverbud Series

Join us for a hands-on adventure as we dig into the amazing world beneath our feet! Cloverbuds will explore what soil is made of, how rocks break down into smaller pieces, and how wind and water move soil across the Earth. Through fun, age-appropriate activities, youth will discover that the same soil supporting life today also supported dinosaurs millions of years ago. Participants will investigate soil layers, learn about weathering, erosion, and deposition, and even create their own edible soil model. Based on the Unearthing Earth lesson from the 2026 4-H Reading Connections "Unearth a Story" series.
