Upcoming activities for Kids in Ottawa - April 2023

We’ve been getting and seeing all kinds of activities and opportunities for kids coming in to our inbox lately so we thought we could put together a grouping of them here for you to check out!

Summer Camps

Many summer camps are already sold out for the season - check out these options that as of writing this, still had available spots!

ASNY (Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet) has spots left in their Magic Treehouse musical theatre summer camp July 17th - 28th. Everything we’ve heard about the ASNY programming has been wonderful and a great chance for any musical kids to be a part of a production!

Math camp: If you have a math enthusiast, the Canadian Mathematical Society is running a camp July 24-28 out of Carleton University! There will be 3 age groups available:  Grades 4-5, Grades 6-7, Grades 8-9 and if there is enough interest they may open up the next week for camps as well.

City of Ottawa: The City has openings left in some of their camps, but they’re filling up fast so a good idea to check out what’s still available sooner than later!

Earth Day

The Nature Museum is opening for free on April 22 for Earth Day, so it’s a great day to visit the museum! They’ve also included a Nature Trek Scavenger Hunt worksheet on their website you can download and bring with you for your visit!

Children’s Business Fair

This event will showcase youth entrepreneurship in the community!

The fair will host 50 youth-run businesses on April 30, 2023 from 10 am to 1 pm at the Lansdowne Horticulture Building. This event is free and open to the public! Children create a product or service, develop a brand, build a marketing strategy, and then open for customers at this one-day marketplace. https://www.childrensbusinessfair.org/ottawa
