Celebrate Moms & Migration
Celebrate Moms and Migratory Birds at the San Mateo County History Museum
Two celebrations are better than one β and this May, we're honoring both the moms in your life and the incredible birds that travel thousands of miles across the sky.
On Saturday, May 9, the San Mateo County History Museum is hosting a free "Celebration of Moms and Migratory Birds" from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. The timing is perfect: May 9 is World Migratory Bird Day, and Mother's Day is right around the corner on May 10.
Step outside first and enjoy Redwood City's "Almost Mother's Day Concert" happening live on the square right in front of the museum. Then let the kids get creative with bird-themed crafts they can give to their moms as a one-of-a-kind homemade gift. Feeling adventurous? Take on the "Birding in the Museum" scavenger hunt and see how many feathered friends you can spot hidden throughout our exhibits. It's a great excuse to look a little closer at everything around you.
Best of all? It's completely free and open to everyone.
