After months of staying-at-home (due to the pandemic), NAC rekindled my son’s love of the outdoors and desire to care for the environment.
“Our kids learn a lot in school, but it’s also good for them to come here and spend time with us too. And especially during these COVID times, it’s hard to find activities that are COVID-friendly and family-friendly.”
My kids had so much fun they didn’t want to come home.
A day with Hawai‘i Nature Center is like a spa day on steroids. It’s so reinvigorating.
Hawai`i Nature Center meets DOE Science Standards. The kids love it too! It’s the best field trip of the year.
As a junior leader volunteer, I get to teach and inspire. My club loves to do service projects here too!
Nature Camp is such an amazing experience, providing kids with a much-needed break from screens and an alternative that is different from other options out there. Through engaging activities like hiking, wildlife exploration, and nature crafts, kids develop a deeper connection with the natural world, fostering their creativity, resilience, and appreciation for the environment.
