Houston Arboretum & Nature Center hosts its popular ArBOOretum, Sat., Oct. 19, 10 a.m.–4 p.m. (last entry is 3 p.m.). Bring the kids out for the Houston Arboretum’s biggest family event of the year, featuring fun activities for all ages. Arboretum Members can attend for free, and all proceeds benefit the Arboretum’s mission of nature education and conservation.

Little ghouls and goblins should plan to be at ArBOOretum to play, learn, and enjoy an engaging day of activities. The popular Trick-or-Treat Nature Trail will lead kids on an adventure of discovery where they will learn about creatures that live at the Arboretum, while collecting candy along the way. Other favorite ArBOOretum activities throughout the day include:  

  • Carnival Swings
  • Trick-or-Treat Nature Trail
  • Halloween Market
  • Live Animal Encounters
