Museum From Home: Family Activities
The exploration of natural history doesn’t just happen within the museum—you can do it anywhere! The CU Museum is here to connect you and your child to the wonders of the natural world with specially curated, downloadable activities designed to support at-home learning, empower children to investigate nature, stimulate curiosity and help families find respite, positivity, and creativity during these unprecedented times.
Learn more about this fascinating phenomenon in our first video for families!
These activities provide opportunities for children to immerse themselves in real-world, hands-on science, cultural, and art activities with minimal screen time. Inclusion and equity are integral to our efforts, so most materials are available at home or are easy to obtain, and content is available in Spanish. As you explore, please share your thoughts and creations with us at museumed@colorado.edu. See below for ways to connect with the CU Museum.
