Homeschool Families "Extending the Experience"
The Crayola FACTORY and National Canal Museum are open year–round for educational opportunities in the field of art, science and history. We’ve designated February and September as homeschool friendly months, due to lower attendance of school groups. When you’re here, ask about our "Extending the Experience" packet we created just for you. This packet includes educational and fun activities to do with your family while here and at home. Ask about a discount for Homeschool Month.
