    What people are saying

    • ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… "Green Explorers Club hosted the birthday party for my 3 year old son and about 20 of his friends. They did a FANTASTIC job! They had fun educational events every 20 mins to keep the kids engaged and moving. The instructions were clear and easy to understand. Several parents commented on how well planned everything was and how the kids were engaged. They also took care of the goodie bags and helped with the cake. The team was very flexible and helpful. You could tell they had experience dealing with kids this age. It was one of the best experiences we've had throwing a birthday party. We highly, highly recommend Green Explorers Club."
      AmitDad to Devan
    • ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… "Our kids have enjoyed this club, where they have explored and learned all about nature in and around the city. Highly recommend."
      BrookeMom to Evangeline
    • ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… "My five-year old son loved the Animals Around the World week of summer camp he did here! He came home excited to share all that heā€™d learned every day and learned lots of new info- which is impressive for this animal obsessed lilā€™ dude! In his words,Ā  I already knew tons about animals, but I didnā€™t know much about WHERE they lived, like ecosystems and habitats. My only regret was signing up for half day instead of full day because every day he was bummed to leave. Weā€™ll definitely be doing full day when we sign up for August!"
      NicoleMom to Zachary
    • ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… ā˜… "My two kids are finishing up the first week of camp and have loved it! I particularly have been impressed with the educational component woven into a day of adventure and play. I'm so happy we found this camp!"

      "Weā€™re always trying to challenge Brady to try new things and so he spent the last two days at camp at Green Explorers Club and he had a blast. He learned all kinds of fun things about coyotes and nature in Chicago and he came home with all kinds of treasures. Thanks to all the teachers for making the last two days so much fun! If your kiddos love nature and youā€™re looking for something outside of the normal sports camp, etc, check it out!"

    More about the team

    Meet our team

    Education

    We believe an environmental education helps kids understand the inter-connectedness of the world around them.

    Participation

    We believe the best way to understand the environment is to experience it for yourself. In our programs kids dig in the dirt, test their own scientific theories, and learn about nature and sustainability with their own two hands.

    Awareness

    We believe if we do not expose our kids to nature when they are young, they will not value it enough to protect it when they are adults. It is our mission to supply our kids the tools they need to manage the environmental obstacles of the future.

    Responsibility

    Where we come from, when something is important, you show up. We encourage our Green Explorers to get involved in their community, and through our classes we connect them to a variety of citizen science projects where their support can make a real difference.

    Let's talk! Feel free to get ahold of us with any questions.
