The SWAMPY Experience
Arrive. Explore. Discover. Understand. Create. Participate.
Every child who steps onto a wetland boardwalk — real or virtual — begins a journey. What they find there can last a lifetime.
ABOUT
Learning Begins With Discovery
SWAMPY environmental education encourages children to observe, ask questions, explore and understand connections in the natural world. The experience can take place outdoors, at schools and community locations, or virtually.
The SWAMPY Learning Journey
Children learn best when they are fully engaged with the world around them. SWAMPY education is built on proven methods of hands-on discovery.
Observation
Looking closely at the natural world — water, soil, plants and animals — and noticing what is really there.
Exploration
Moving through real and virtual wetland environments with curiosity as the guide.
Questions
Asking why, how, and what if — the most powerful tools any young scientist possesses.
Hands-On Activities
Doing, building, collecting and experimenting — learning that sticks because children made it themselves.
Stories
Environmental storytelling that connects history, nature and the lives of the creatures that share our world.
Connecting to the World
Helping children see themselves as part of the natural world — not separate from it.
Why SWAMPY Exists
Help young people develop environmental knowledge, curiosity and stewardship through memorable experiences with the natural world.
Environmental Science Meets Storytelling
SWAMPY combines environmental science, exploration, storytelling, creativity and hands-on learning into a single unforgettable experience.
Every Child Can Participate
Whether in a wetland, a schoolyard, or a classroom screen — every young learner can access the SWAMPY experience.
Connections That Last
We help children connect what they learn in SWAMPY programs to the living world all around them, every day.
Bring SWAMPY to Your Learners
SWAMPY programs meet children, schools and communities where they are — in the field, in the classroom, or online.

KIDS' CREATIONS
See SWAMPY Through Their Eyes
Sometimes the best way to understand what children learned is to see what they create.
SWAMPY encourages young people to draw, write, imagine, observe and share what they discover about soils, waters, animals, plants and their own place in the environment.
