Home Explorer Series

Check back periodically for new activities to engage the young explorer(s) in your home!

Below you’ll find opportunities for your child(ren) to learn about science, perform experiments, create arts and crafts, and discover the local watershed we share. To access the activities, just click on a square below. (The newest activities are posted at the top.)

Meet Your New @Home Scientist: Hello environmental explorers! My name is Miss Ryan and I am the new Environmental Education and Outreach Leader for Umpqua Watersheds!
I am excited to share activities with you to do at home or in the community with your family; each week I will post something new for you to try. I will also organize contests and other activities each month. Feel free to email me (ryan@umpquawatersheds.org) with any questions, exciting photos you want to share and/or ideas for things you’d like to see on this site! I look forward to learning with you!
