Pearland's free city-run nature center: the indoor exhibit hall has live turtles, snakes and lizards plus a touch table, and outside is a paved loop around the lake with bird-watching spots. The 2-year-old watches turtles, the 7-year-old gets a mini nature class, and on rainy days half of it still works.
