Forest School Programs
Nurture your child’s love of nature through our weekly forest school programs. Your child will explore, play, and notice the seasonal changes around them. More than anything, they will foster a connection to the land, which we know has great health and wellbeing benefits. There will be stories, games, and time for imaginative play in the meadows and woods of Huron Natural Area. Our small group size helps us to get to know each other as we get to know the land around us.
NOTE: All participants are expected to be toilet trained.
