Hello, 6th wave. We won’t let you get in the way of us having fun this month. With a combination of masks on and outdoor activities, there are plenty of fun events and outings that are making Montreal feel like the busting city it once was. Here’s my roundup of Montreal family activities April 2022 has to offer.

Girls under the age of 17 can go to the Montreal Science Centre for free on this day from 10am to 5pm.

Easter Egg Hunt at Quinn Farm – April 9-10 & 15-18

Aside from seeing the farm animals, kids can participate in an Easter egg hunt where they will have to catch eggs at 10 different stations. In Covid Halloween style, the eggs will be dropped through a tube at each station. The Easter bunny will also be on-site giving out chocolate.
