If your plans change and you can no longer make it, as long as you let us know two-weeks or more before the date of the program, we can generally transfer your registration to another program or event, provided there is space. You would still be responsible for any difference in cost, if one exists. If you let us know less than two weeks out, there are no refunds or transfers.

Each of our homeschool day programs has a different theme. In each program, you will learn a little bit about the Browns and Victorian life in Colorado. You will not get a guided tour of the museum during a homeschool day program, however, after completing the Homeschool Day activities, you are welcome to do a self-guided tour of the home with your group. Adults are expected to stay with their students at all times.
