Kindergarten
Exploring the Living World
Kindergarten is a time for big questions, curious minds, and discovering the world around us! Our programs encourage students to wonder, explore, and make connections as they learn about wildlife and the natural world. Through engaging discussions, hands-on experiences, and thoughtful questions, students build their critical thinking, inquiry, communication, and problem-solving skills along the way.
Whether you visit us or invite our educators into your classroom, we offer meaningful learning opportunities for young learners—from Animal Ambassador encounters and guided wildlife experiences to interactive classroom programs and conservation learning.

Wildlife Detectives: Who Lives Nearby
Put on your explorer hat and get ready to follow the clues! Students will discover how to spot animal tracks, footprints, nests, scat, and other signs that reveal which wild neighbours may be living nearby.
Through hands-on activities, observation, and fun games, students will become wildlife detectives—learning how to read the clues animals leave behind and uncover the hidden world of nature right outside their classroom!
The clues are everywhere… you just have to know where to look!
WILD Through the Seasons
What do Ontario’s wild animals do when the seasons change? Wild Through the Seasons takes students on a year-round adventure to discover how wildlife survives and thrives through winter, spring, summer, and fall.
Through fun stories, games, and interactive activities, students will explore how animals find food, stay safe, raise their young, prepare for changing weather, and adapt to the world around them.
From winter snoozers to busy spring babies, discover how the WILD changes all year long!
WILD In Colour
Why do some animals blend right in while others are dressed to stand out? Wild in Colour explores the amazing ways animals use colour to survive in the wild!
Students will discover how camouflage helps animals hide, while bright colours can send warnings, attract attention, or even trick other animals. Through fun games, colourful examples, and hands-on activities, students will uncover the secret messages hidden in nature’s colours.
In the wild, every colour has a story to tell!
