With our guidance, spend 2 days taking nature walks, making crafts and playing games to learn about the

out-of-doors.

   In the preschool and kindergarten sessions children learn about animals and plants and concepts such as sensory exploration and tame and wild. The first through fourth grade sessions introduce animal families and ecological concepts such as predator and prey, niches, and communities. The fifth-eighth grade session is a sleepover at TWC! We go on a night hike and stargaze to learn about the nocturnal world. Each grade level session is designed to intrigue and challenge children of that age. Activities are organized for adults working and learning with their child.

Mark your calendars and register soon! Before your session, you will receive information with a detailed schedule and suggestions about what to wear and bring. Sign up for the grade level your child will enter in the fall.
