About This Day
Looking for educational and fun things to do in Sudbury, Canada? Take the kids to Science North, one of Canada's largest science museums, and Dynamic Earth, conveniently located in northern Ontario. After a morning of discovery at the first stop, head to the second museum of this fun, learning-filled day, Dynamic Earth. This earth science museum focuses on the mining history of the region and also offers interactive fun. Both of these science centres offer incredible learning experiences for the whole family. We made a whole day out of getting our hands dirty and learning about how things work. These Sudbury attractions offer a great family bonding and memory building day.
