On a whim, I decided to check in with the progress of PHX library's renovations and if this summer would be one without toddler storytime...

Jenkins Arboretum
What better way to celebrate the outdoor season than a nice, shady nature walk? We recently visited Jenkins Arboretum, located just north of the 252 & 202 interchange in Devon, for a nice stroll through some flowers.
First, Jenkins Arboretum is FREE although you might want to consider a membership just to keep this amazing place going. It was the most pristine nature center I've ever been to! No trash, well kept paths (mostly paved), and flower varieties marked with signs for the horticulture enthusiast. Also no dogs allowed, which was pleasant knowing I wouldn't step in any dog-doo along the way.
Some of the nice features of the arboretum was a wonderful pond, plenty of benches along the paths that were in the shade, and a fantastic gift shop/bathroom facilities. You kids will be delighted to see giant decorated watering cans out front before the joing the staff for a nature story time on Tuesday mornings at 10am (for 3-5 year olds & free).
If your child is still not ready for a nap after visiting Jenkins Arboretum, I strongly suggest going to the nearby Wilson Farm Park next.
