EDUCATORS
See the museum in a brand new way! The Virtual Programs give students and educators an inside look into the Chesapeake Children's Museum, also offering MSDE aligned activities. Our museum educators are prepared to work with all school levels including preschool, homeschool and daycare groups.
Program themes and projects change due to curriculum and time of year. The programs are virtual, fun and creative!
Upon receiving your request, we will connect on your media platform or via our Museum Zoom.
