Children & Families | Naples Botanical Garden

The W.O.N.D.E.R. continues at Home!

Let the discovery continue, even after your visit ends! Our staff shares nature-based activities, fun facts, and lots of ways kids can explore the outdoors.

Garden Adventures

Before you venture onto the pathway, pick up a W.O.N.D.E.R. Activity Pack at the Chabraja Visitor Center with materials specially created by our Garden educators. Or drop by the W.O.N.D.E.R. table to join us for a daily activity that encourages families to Walk, Observe, Navigate, Draw, Explore, and Read.

October – Super Seeds

Have you ever planted a seed and waited patiently for that first little sprout to pop up from the soil? Even the smallest seeds contain everything needed to develop into a full-grown plant that produces seeds of its own. Discover the magic of seeds—where they come from, where they go, and what they need to grow.

November – Little Green Thumbs

Learn how we take care of our vegetables, herbs, flowers, and more. You’ll even get to find out how to grow plants from cuttings, as you pot up your own little piece of the Garden!

December – Tree-mendous Trees

Take a break from decorating your holiday tree and hang out with the trees that make Naples Botanical Garden special. Count the rings in a tree cookie, read stories, and plant your very own Tree-mendous Tree to take home.
