Kids can always find something fantastic to explore at NYBG. Pique their interest in plants at our new pop-up across from the Native Plant Garden, where the Garden’s Teen Explainers are eager to share seasonal activities, hands-on programs like crafts and potting up plant seedlings, and other family-friendly events throughout the year. Elsewhere at NYBG, you can dive into registered programs with your little ones, including camps that focus on vegetable gardening, scientific discovery, and more.
The Everett Children’s Adventure Garden (ECAG) is currently closed for restoration! We’re hard at work updating this family space—indoors and out—to offer better science and nature learning opportunities, and create fun new spaces for kids to explore. Learn more here.
