Every activity in our Boreal Forest Study is designed to be hands-on and immersive. Children are encouraged to observe their surroundings, ask thoughtful questions, and make discoveries based on their experiences. This interactive approach brings the magic of the boreal forest to life, helping children develop critical thinking skills while fostering a deeper connection to the natural world.

A key feature of our curriculum is its emphasis on empowering kids to take charge of their learning. With creative projects like Pathfinders, children have the opportunity to explore topics that captivate their interests, fostering curiosity and a sense of ownership over their education. By the end of the month, your child will have a newfound appreciation for the boreal forest and the incredible creatures and ecosystems it supports, all while gaining valuable knowledge and skills along the way.
