Learning at Home

Looking for opportunities to bring the Conservatory into your home or virtual classroom? Check out these activities, experiments, and tours that connect learners to the tropics.

Explore the Rainforest with the Tropical Trekkers

Recommended grades: Kindergarten – 5th

Download Tropical Trekkers Booklet

An activity book full of Conservatory-themed puzzles, coloring activities, and more, this printable book helps students discover some of the Conservatory’s tropical wonders, from pineapples to pitcher plants.

Exploring Rainforest Adaptations

Recommended grades: 2nd – 6th

Exploring Rainforest Adaptations

What is an adaptation? Discover some of the ways that rainforest plants adapt to their environment to get sun, water, air, and nutrients. Then, imagine and design your own plant and its adaptations.

Leaf Adaptation Experiment

Recommended grades: 2nd – 6th

Download Leaf Adaptation Experiment

Some rainforest plants have a surface that repels water and helps them stay dry. In this experiment, you’ll compare three-leaf surface adaptations – waxy, fuzzy, and uncoated – to see which best repels water.
