Description:

DBMS offers half-day vacation day programs from 12:30-3:30 PM for grades K-2. During half-day programs, we pick students up from Chandler Elementary School in our 15-passenger van. Students who attend other schools are welcome to join our half-day programs. We also offer full-day vacation programs from 9:00-2:00 PM for grades K-5. Some of our full-day programs include a field trip component. Please read the program descriptions to learn more about the topics and activities offered in each program. Join us for an exciting educational adventure to the Harvard Museum of Natural History, where science comes to life! During this field trip, participants will:

• Explore fascinating exhibits on dinosaurs, gemstones, climate change, marine life, and more.

• Get up close with real specimens from around the world, including rare fossils, sparkling minerals, and exotic animals.

• Engage in hands-on learning that connects natural history to topics like evolution, biodiversity, and conservation.

This trip offers a unique opportunity to experience science beyond the classroom and spark curiosity about the natural world. Whether you're into ancient creatures, deep-sea wonders, or the science of Earth's systems, there’s something here for everyone!
