You may not be able to visit in person but you can still go on a little adventure with your kids from the comfort of your own home! Many attractions across the country are opening up virtually for you and your family to go on a field trip without having to leave the house. Take a virtual field trip to the Cincinnati zoo, virtually tour the Grand Canyon, or have storytime with your favorite celebrity. It will feel like you're there in person!
Cincinnati Zoo Home Safari on Facebook Live
Go on a safari from the comfort of your living room everyday at 3pm ET with the Cincinnati Zoo. Each day they highlight one of their amazing animals and give you an activity to do from home.
Monterey Bay Aquarium Live Feed
Take your pick from a variety of live camera feeds at the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Get a close look at the delicate jellyfish, take a dive into the shark tank, watch the sea otters swim through the water, or even see what the penguins are up to!
National Aquarium Live Feed
Tune into the Blacktip Reef, Pacific Coral Reef or the Jellies Invasion live streams to take a look at all kinds of marine life, like sharks, jellyfish, and tropical fish. They also have a fun coral-themed word search to do while you watch!
Tour our National Parks
While we may be unable to go see these natural beauties in person for the time being, we can now virtually tour our national parks. Travel to one of our world wonders, The Grand Canyon, and learn all about what makes it special. You can also tour the hidden worlds of our national parks, like Hawaii’s volcanoes or the Carlsbad Caverns.
Tour the world’s most famous museums
Don’t let being stuck at the house keep you from learning and seeing different cultures. Take a virtual walk through famous art museums like the Louvre in Paris and the MET in New York City. Or, visit the Vatican Museum in Rome to see a 360° view of the Sistine Chapel.
Have storytime with your favorite celebrities
Watch some of your favorite public figures and celebrities read their most loved books. Each day a new story is read and you never know who will be reading to you next! Check it out at Storyline Online and #SAVEWITHSTORIES on Instagram.
We hope you enjoy these great field trips with your family and would love to see what your favorite was. Share with us on Facebook and Instagram what field trip your family decided to go on!
