Connecting Kids with Nature

Thursday, February 06

10:30 AM - 11:45 AM

Families

Details

Build a bridge to nature with your young ones. Experience how multisensory nature connections help young children develop healthy and happy brains and bodies. Time spent in nature is critical to children's social-emotional, and physical development. Child-centered, exploratory, imaginative play fosters creativity, emotional well-being, independent learning, and problem solving.

Experience the wonders of nature through your child's eyes. Each month we'll focus on using our senses to discover what new changes are happening in nature. Adults learn about the benefits of outdoor nature play and exploration while children experience it.

FREE. Adult supervision required.

Meet behind the Education Wing of the Greenbelt Cultural Center. Dress for the weather. May want to bring extra clothing if children get wet or muddy. Email AskAnEducator@LCFPD.org with questions or to inquire about accommodations.
