The Young Explorers Program brings together families to instill a sense of curiosity and ignite the spirit of exploration in students ages 7-12 years old with fun and interactive sessions with field explorers.
The Young Explorers Program aims to:
Nurture the sense of curiosity and instinct of exploration among young children via lectures, activities, and programs
Develop awareness of past/future exploration, as well as issues, environments, and actions to make a difference
Foster broader engagement among existing members who participate in the program
Cultivate and attract future Explorers Club members at an early age
The program has been running since 2016 with 35 sessions on space, the poles, sharks, Egypt, dinosaurs, Greenland minerals, Narwhals, Caving etc. It has also lead to young explorers expeditions to find dinosaur bones in New Jersey and the youngest scientific expedition to the North Pole (YoungExplorer.org)
We are restarting the program in 2023
We had the first session this year with Richard Garriott on February 26th on Curiosity in Action.
We are planning more sessions for 2023. Stay tuned.
