Toronto Pearson Unveils Explorers Club for Kids

Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ) is launching The Pearson Airport Explorers Club, a new online learning program for kids that tackles topics such as how to tell 24-hour time, the special airport codes used by pilots and air traffic controllers, and how bags get from a ticket counter to the belly of an airplane.

The Pearson Airport Explorers Club is made up of different modules that are appropriate for kids in grades three to eight who may be out of school due to pandemic-related closings.

New activities will pop up every week, each focused on a different airport topic, including deicing planes, airport firefighters, security dogs and other airports around the world

“Toronto Pearson is a part of the communities it serves, and our commitment to engaging with our neighbors has never been stronger,” said Robyn Connelly, director of community relations for the Greater Toronto Airports Authority. “The airport is a fascinating place, and the Pearson Airport Explorers Club is a fun way for kids to learn about Pearson and keep busy while they stay home.”

The program was developed by Pearson’s Community Relations team together with MASS LPB as a way to stay connected to the community during these unprecedented times of social and physical distancing.
