Nature BoundWinter 2025 Programming WednesdaysWinter 2025 Semester2 sessions of 4 classes each Session 1: January 8, 15, 22, 29
Session2: February 5, 12, 19, 26 .png)
Nature Seeds, accompanied by their own adult, will explore nature stories, crafts, songs, nature play, group games, and discovering natural spaces around the Visitor Center. The focus of these sessions is to encourage sensory exploration and save space for each child’s interpretation, imagination and improvisation in nature and play. Please note: one adult caregiver must be present with their child during sessions. Nature Sprouts, Sprigs and Buds will be immersed in the wonder of nature. Children will strengthen their bodies and minds as we explore the streams, ponds, forests, and meadows of the KVR. Our experiential, age-appropriate curriculum will include science, literature, art, music, outdoor skills, map-reading, stewardship and mindfulness. These subjects will be incorporated into fun hikes, projects, games, and hands-on sensory experiences. Each day we will enjoy learning more about ourselves, each other, and the natural world. Snacks and materials are included. Instructors: Cathy Chybowski, Mary Szepi, Beck O'Leary, Macey Wood, and Rose Boyajian, Heather van Zyl.
