Into the Forest

Escape the everyday and step "Into The Forest" with your child this fall!  Imagine your child's eyes lighting up as they explore the wonders of the forest, right alongside you! This program is designed for children and caregivers to experience the magic of nature together.  Every Friday afternoon, you'll embark on an adventure that fosters confidence, teaches about nature and the plants and animals in it, and guarantees plenty of opportunities for messy, joyful play. 

Join us and make fall a season of hand-on outdoor discovery!  It's the perfect way to connect with nature and each other.

When children make art, the process is not only fun but beneficial in many ways. Art in nature contributes to a child's well-being, happiness, concentration and overall health. Each session we will work with as many natural materials as we can and explore different textures, shapes and colors- all while building fine motor skills! Children and their caregivers will explore nature, search for animals and insects, learn about plants and complete a beautiful piece of art each class!
