Let’s dig in the dirt! Adventurers investigate how plants grow, dissect seeds, and practice botanical illustration like Smithsonian scientists. Inspiration comes from virtual explorations of the gardens surrounding Smithsonian museums, online exhibits at the Natural History Museum and U.S. Botanic Garden, and their own backyard. They keep a field guide throughout the week to record their observations.
Smithsonian Adventures and experts at the Smithsonian Early Enrichment Center (SEEC) have partnered to make the world of the Smithsonian the perfect destination for young learners. In live, one-hour sessions, SEEC educators lead interactive explorations of objects and artworks in the Smithsonian’s collections that spark art making and experimentation.
Please note: these programs are not developed for children under five.
Registration for this Adventure will close two weeks prior to the first session date. If you are trying to register after that point, please email us at SummerCamp@si.edu and we will do our best to accommodate your request if space is still available.
