Summer
An outdoor program for ages 3-9
Our explorers will take to the forests of South Mountain Reservation for adventure, to play and observe nature in all its glory. We will follow our curiosity, listen to our imagination, and have FUN! The possibilities are endless! Nature offers infinite opportunities for discovery - digging for earthworms, building magical forts, reading under the magnificent canopy of trees, and making new friends. Come join us this summer!
Online registration begins on January 14th at 9 pm. Please note that group sizes are small and tend to fill early.
Bluebirds (3-5 years old)
Our Bluebird program is infused with all the magic the forest has to offer. From storytelling and outdoor exploration to art invitations and circle time, each day of the week follows a rhythm that invites summer to be filled with treasured memories.
