On a snowy winter day in the woods, a young teen girl, her arm outstretched, smiles broadly as a chickadee eats from her hand.

Kids aged 5-12 are invited to start the new year with two full days of seasonal outdoor fun, led by the Humber Arboretum's Nature Interpreters. Give your child a chance to get outside and be active while they develop a lasting appreciation for the natural environment.

We'll explore the theme of winter survival, looking at animal tracks and signs, learning about warmth and shelter, and discovering all the wonder that winter has to offer.

Humber Arboretum Nature Camps are based out of the LEED Gold Certified Centre for Urban Ecology, but campers will spend most of their time outdoors making their own discoveries in the woodlands, meadows, and gardens of the Humber Arboretum, conveniently located at the back of Humber College North Campus.

Winter Survival Camp runs from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. Before care (from 8 a.m.) and aftercare (until 5 p.m.) is available for an additional fee. The cost of camp is:
