Nature Club

Wednesdays from 9:15am to 10:30am
(Caregiver + Child)

Created for our youngest KIND adventurers (ages 18 months – 4 years) to attend alongside a parent, a grandparent, or a caregiver.

Being in nature encourages healthy minds and bodies. Research shows that regular interaction with nature creates a greater sense of happiness, overall physical health, and well being. Being outdoors not only provides children with fresh air, but it encourages imaginative play, creativity, hand-eye coordination, balance, physical strength and mental clarity. Our goal is to increase awareness of, and connection to, the natural world in order to foster compassion and empathy for the earth and all its inhabitants.


Fall TRImester | September through December*

Registration NOW OPEN.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Each week will feature a welcome song, followed by forest exploration, an art/sensory-based activity, and a story. Caregivers and children should come dressed ready for whatever the weather and prepared for mess! While your little one engages with the natural world, you will connect with other like-minded adults, learn some catchy songs, and perhaps a few new flora & fauna facts.  

DURING OUR TIME, your child will:

  • Be immersed in nature with a small group of multiage peers

  • Engage DIRECTLY with their environment

  • Integrate art, music, and drama with science

  • Build Shelters / hideouts in the forest

  • Make forest decorations

  • Learn the names of many native plants and animals

  • Develop earth-friendly habits

  • Get dirty!​
