Wintering Together in the Park
REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN FOR WINTER 2025 CLASSES!
Together in the Park offers something special in the winter season. This winter, let’s come together for a 4 week mini-session to celebrate the unique landscape and activities available to us in the winter season with the help of our animal friends!
Together in the Park is a nature program designed for children, ages 2-8, and their caregivers to get outside to play and find community. Our nature programs take place year-round in area parks and green spaces, and offer a variety of invitations to play designed to spark wonder and curiosity and enhance relationships with the natural world.
Class Structure
Our classes are based on child-led play and value the process of wonder and experimentation over a final product. Each nature play session follows a predictable rhythm, while introducing a new theme of the week. Every class begins with a gathering activity, followed by story-time and a mini-hike to our finding spot where we discover the tools for our main activity. Nearby is a nature table extension for further exploration on the day’s theme. We end class with nature journaling and a closing circle. In the winter we end class with warm tea.
For every activity, while there is a play theme in mind, the children are encouraged to turn it into their own and play in any way. We work hard to make each class hit on as many different sensory processes as we can so that every child’s developmental needs are met.
