Family Explorers Program!
Join us for an enchanting adventure designed just for families and little explorers! This season, we’re inviting families to dive into the wonders of nature with hands-on activities, all while embracing the magic of the outdoors.
🌲 Fire & Shelter Building: Learn the art of crafting a cozy shelter and building a safe, kid-friendly fire to keep warm in the winter woods. Watch little faces light up as we learn the essentials of staying safe and snug in nature!
🐾 Animal Tracks & Wildlife Wonders: Winter is a busy season for our woodland friends! Together, we’ll track animal footprints, discover who’s been walking in the snow, and uncover fun facts about how wildlife stays active and survives in the winter months.
🎶 Musical Guests: We’ll be joined by a musical guest who will add rhythm to our adventures. Gather around the fire, sing along, and enjoy a performance inspired by the season, filling the forest with wintery tunes and cozy campfire classics!
Play & Nature Games: The seasons provide the perfect setting for nature-inspired games, sensory exploration, and endless fun! From snow sculptures to sunny treasure hunts, we’ll make memories that will warm your hearts all year long.
Whether you’re new to the wonders of nature or seasoned outdoor adventurers, this program will inspire a love for nature and create family memories to last a lifetime.
