Learn Big Science for Little Hands at Science World.
When you do science with your children, you can share their
sense of wonder about the natural world. Science World’s
free activities are meant to serve as a starting point for
early-childhood scientific exploration. Several are available
to download and easy to do at home! scienceworld.ca
The Royal BC Museum has launched three new webinar series—RBCM@Home, RBCM@Home (Kids) and RBCM@Outside—so
British Columbians can stay connected while staying apart. RBCM@Home (Kids) is much like an online museum playdate. Participants
will visit with museum members who are working from home, along with other families from across B.C., to learn and make
together. RBCM@Home (Kids) takes place every Wednesday from 11-11:30am. facebook.com/RoyalBCMuseum
