🌿 Explore the World of Plants in Our Cretaceous Garden! 🦖
Step back in time and discover what plants looked like in Alberta during the Age of Dinosaurs! In this hands-on program, students will work in teams to locate, analyze, describe, and draw a specific plant from the Cretaceous period. They’ll then present what they’ve learned to their classmates.
This engaging experience encourages observation, investigation, artistic expression, and public speaking skills.
Who it’s for:
Best suited for Grades 4–7, but younger learners in Grades 2–3 who would enjoy the experience are very welcome to join us.

Schedule:
Museum admission begins at 11:00 a.m.
Program runs from 11:45 a.m. – 12:45 p.m.
Your admission is valid for the entire museum until 5:00 p.m.

Admission & Costs:
Homeschool students and their “teacher” (parent): FREE admission
Children 6 and under: FREE
Youth (7–17): $14.00

After the program, we’ll plan to meet for lunch as a group for anyone who’d like to connect, relax, and make some new homeschool friends. And then explore the museum further.
We’d love to have you join us for a day of learning, exploration, and community!
