The Twelve Days of Winter at Lake Metroparks Penitentiary Glen Reservation

It’s back!

The Twelve Days of Winter returns for an encore at Penitentiary Glen Reservation in Kirtland. We’ve put a natural twist into this popular life-size game board guided by the familiar holiday song, “The Twelve Days of Christmas,” C’mon, you know the tune, so sing and play along!
“On the first Day of Winter, the season brought to me, the snow falling on a pine tree.” “On the second Day of Winter, the season brought to me...”

Take a turn, move along from space to space, and discover through interactive play the many things that nature gives us in winter. In addition, a craft, activity pages and scavenger hunts are fun for the whole family. Reminisce with your family and friends about your favorite childhood board games through a retro exhibit of classic games from the 50s, 60s & 70s.

Join us on Saturday afternoons during The Twelve Days of Winter forspecial, free activities. Visit the event webpage for listing.
