If a child could wave a magic wand and create the perfect place for an outdoor adventure the Naples Botanical Garden would probably be the result.
This garden is a place where you can learn as a family about the world around you and provides as much delight for parents and grandparents as it does for kids!
Most importantly, this garden is a place you’ll want to return to often.
Naples Botanical Garden organizes activities of W.O.N.D.E.R. which stands for Walk, Observe, Navigate, Draw, Explore and Read including W.O.N.D.E.R. Activity Packs for children to enjoy during their Garden adventure and even at home.
Activity Packs for the kids, also located in the Visitor Center, for a hands-on learning experience while strolling the Garden or at home. Available in English, Spanish, and Haitian Creole, each pack is centered around a monthly theme and features a Garden map, activity page, Junior Nature Journal, craft, and supplies to enjoy at your own pace.
Naples Botanical Garden attracts pollinators, butterflies included, through collections showcasing the tropics. Be on the lookout for pollinators, feathered friends, and more during your Garden visit.
In addition, Naples Botanical Garden Preserve offers a mile-long paved pathway as well as sandy trails through pine flatwoods and coastal scrub, offering children the opportunity to explore on an easy walk/hike through these restored ecosystems.
