  •  Add to Calendar 2017-04-22 2017-04-22 America/Toronto "Wild About Canada" POP-UP Adventure Playground Celebrate Earth Day at Earth Day Canada’s “Wild About Canada” POP-UP Adventure Playground. This is a great demonstration of what our EarthPLAY program is all about — giving kids the opportunity to build, create, make-believe, get messy, invent, collaborate and take calculated risks. A POP-UP Adventure Playground is a one-day event to showcase the possibility of child-directed adventure play using “loose parts” in urban green spaces. The POP-UPs are staffed by trained playworkers who model the role adults need to perform to support their children’s play. Earth Day Canada’s POP-UP Adventure Playground program stimulates community involvement in developing “loose parts” play programs – an affordable way to animate local playgrounds and green spaces with enriched, nature-based, creative and social play opportunities for children ages 3 – 13.
