Now that spring is here and school is almost over, what are your kids doing this summer? Wascana Centre has introduced a brand-new programming opportunity – Sprouts Garden Day Camp! Sprouts will focus on nature in and around our gardens, learning all about plants and exploring the greenhouse and much more. It’s guaranteed to be an unbe-leaf-able time as we branch out to different plant topics.

A typical day for Sprouts would include several hands-on experiences and gardening activities throughout the day. This includes time for snacks and breaks, exploring the Habitat Conservation Area, touring Wascana’s large greenhouse, and exciting activities like creating seed paper, pond dipping, constructing insect homes, plant geocaching, making terrariums, and so much more!

COST: $200

LOCATION: 435 Assiniboine Ave East
