Discovery Activity: The Forest of a Thousand Mysteries
How does the forest adapt to the changing seasons? Imagining themselves as photographers and equipped with cardboard cameras, students explore Mount Royal and "take pictures" of what they find interesting.
Smithers, one of Mount Royal’s resident squirrels, has decided to scatter tests and challenges throughout the forest. Only those who successfully meet them will be able to unlock the mountain’s secrets. Explore the mountain through fun activities and games. Who knows, maybe Smithers will reveal all of Mount Royal’s mysteries!
