  • Curiosity: Out to Play programming is emergent and responsive to the interests of the child! Educators model curiosity and delight about the natural world. Children's curiosity helps lead their learning and play through each day.

A one of a kind urban Forest and Nature School experience showcasing the science and natural world learning opportunities of the Canadian Museum of Nature. 

The Playful Scientist program is a fun and exciting way for children (5-10 years) to spend their summer! An urban Forest School experience with storytelling, art and child-centred, inquiry-driven, experiential and active outdoor play in the Landscape of Canada Gardens and neighbouring children's parks. 

Each week includes fun science activities led by museum interpreters and forest school educators to spark your child's mind. 


Une expérience unique alliant les approches de forêt urbaine et d’école de la nature démontrant ainsi les possibilités d’apprentissage des sciences et du monde naturel offertes par le Musée canadien de la nature.

Le programme Scientifiques enjoués est une façon amusante et passionnante pour les enfants (5-10 ans) de passer l'été !  Ce camp offre une approche d’école forestière urbaine avec des contes, de l’art et des jeux en plein air centrés sur l’enfant, axés sur la recherche, l’expérience et l’activité dans le paysage des jardins du Canada et les parcs pour enfants avoisinants.

Chaque semaine comprend des activités amusantes menées par des interprètes scientifiques du musée et des éducateurs de l'école forestière pour éveiller l'esprit de votre enfant.
