Join us for the grand opening ribbon cutting of our newest exhibit the Sorting Station, February 8 at 10:00am!

Designed for curious little learners, the Sorting Station combines pretend play, simple machinery, and real-world learning to teach where our waste goes, and how we can make smarter choices for the planet.

• Drive the child-sized truck — role-play as a driver collecting neighborhood bins while wearing real hard hats and vests.
• Sort materials — discover everyday items (paper, plastic, food scraps, etc.) and decide whether they belong in recycling, compost, or landfill stations.
• Operate the hand-crank conveyor belt — crank, load, and watch items travel down, learning cause and effect and the steps of processing.
• Follow the material pathway — interactive signs and simple visuals help children learn where items go after pickup.

The exhibit is sponsored by Recology Sonoma Marin
