Acorns

For ages 1-3 years. Our Caregiver and child class is a shorter session that provides an opportunity for parents (or grandparent, aunt/uncle, or other caregiver) to connect with their children as they both experience nature. We will have time for music, movement, stories, and free play each session! This class will have some optional activities designed for the session, but the main focus is time in nature and with loved ones!

  • One Nature Guide/Facilitator for the class

  • One caregiver may register up to two of their own children

Mighty Oaks

This is our original outdoor experience for school-age children ages 5+.  Our goal is to immerse children in nature and facilitate their growth in every way! This class operates in an entirely outdoors, weekly 4-hour session. Children will participate in unstructured play, as well as class-driven emergent curriculum that evolves over the course of the season. Children learn to challenge themselves as well as work with others to build, create, and discover each day. 

  • 4-hour drop-off class one day per week 

  • 10-12-week sessions depending on the season

  • Gear list will be shared to be sure everyone is properly equipped for the outdoor experiences

  • There will be one Lead and one Assistant teacher for each class. 

  • We may operate two classes at the same time if interest is there

  • Students bring a lunch and healthy snack each day
