A journey through Prince Edward Island Canada Adventure Travel would be incomplete without time in its iconic parks. PEI National Park spans 40 kilometres of rugged shoreline, rolling sand dunes, and picturesque boardwalks. Meanwhile, Basin Head Provincial Park in Souris is famed for its “singing sands” and family-friendly beach.

    As part of the Raising Stars Preschool Summer Adventure Program, a visit was made to Armory Park in Vernon, BC. Known for its spacious layout and family-friendly design. The playground area features a large sandy surface, making it ideal for sensory play and physical activity. Children explored two swings, a fun climbing structure, one-of-a-kind slides (one slide has a slant & curb), and a tunnel perfect for imaginative games and movement-based learning. Adding to the excitement, an Unplug and Play toy chest was discovered on the field—filled with free-access toys that encourage screen-free fun, collaboration, and creativity. This visit was part of our Summer Adventurer Program, which helps connect preschoolers with local parks, nature, and their community through hands-on, outdoor exploration.

    The capelin rolling in Newfoundland and Labrador is an event that always sparks a lot of excitment. These small silvery fish arrive in abundance in June or July bringing with them a host of seabirds, whales and other marine life that follow the capelin as a food source. The arrival of the capelin feels like the kick-off to summer and many beaches around the province provide spawning grounds for these little fish. In Newfoundland and Labrador, word spreads like wildfire when 'the capelin are rolling'. People flock in droves to beaches to try and catch sight of or to actually catch some of these wriggly fish. They are a traditional food source and I remember as a child my parents also using them to fertilize our lawn. According to the provincial government of Newfoundland and Labrador, there are over 30 different coves across the province with capelin in their name, demonstrating the importance of this fish to the culture of Newfoundland.On a kayak trip out of Chance Cove, Trinity Bay on Canada Day, I was lucky enough to witness schools of capelin darting this way and that underneath my boat. They move as a shimmering mass and it is mesmerizing to watch. The weather conditions that day meant I was able to paddle in close to shore to have an excellent view of the capelin in the shallow, clear water. I could see the females washing up on the beach to lay their eggs in gravel that had already been fertilized by the males. We are fortuante to witness this annual spectacle in Newfoundland and being in a kayak provided a really interesting and not commonly seen perspective on the capelin roll.

    Raising Stars Summer Adventure Program spent the day exploring Sovereign Park and Beach — a hidden, tucked-away shoreline far from the hustle and bustle of the busy tourist season. This peaceful beach offered the perfect setting for a calm and engaging day of outdoor discovery. Our young adventurers explored gentle walking trails surrounded by nature, shaded picnic tables, a large open field, and convenient public washrooms. Along the way, we encountered incredible wildlife — including a deer and several Canadian geese — igniting curiosity and wonder in the children. At Raising Stars, safety is always our highest priority. During water play, children are only allowed in shallow areas, with water reaching approximately waist height. A teacher is always within arm’s reach to ensure active supervision and support. While the water may appear deeper in photos or videos due to floating or swimming movement, strict safety measures are followed. If families provide life jackets, they are used during water activities. We maintain a low 1:5 teacher-to-child ratio to ensure every child is carefully monitored and supported throughout the day. The Raising Stars Summer Adventure Program blends Reggio-inspired, play-based learning with meaningful outdoor experiences. Sovereign Park and Beach offered a perfect natural classroom where children could explore, imagine, and make lasting summer memories.
