The tropical rainforest is an inspiring place! Visiting the Bloedel Conservatory is like taking a trip to the tropics right here in Vancouver, BC. Take a bit of the tropics home by colouring a parrot page, building a paper macaw, or creating your own bromeliad. You can even colour some of the pages online! Click the following links and let the fun begin!
