Announcing Our Summer Forest School
TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY MORNINGS
FROM JULY 29TH -AUGUST 20TH, 2014
Families with children age 18 months to 4 years are invited to join us for a free, parent-led forest program which will take place this summer in a beautiful location in Tilden Park.
We will be using a co-op model where each family will supervise one day and have the opportunity to drop kids off on the other day. You are also welcome to accompany your child every day if you just want something fun to do outside!
Activities will mostly be child directed play, with some guidance and input from parents. We will walk a short distance to one of two nearby meadows, along the way or when we arrive collecting leaves and cones, building fairy houses, singing songs, collecting treasure baskets of natural materials, racing, and hiding. Then we will have a little snack, perhaps have a short circle with a story or game and possibly some simple art activities before making our way around the loop and back to the picnic benches/meadow for lunch and pickup around 1 PM.
Get in touch through our contact form for more information. You don't need to be part of our preschool program to participate.
