Sapling Spring Program

This program is designed for children aged 1-4 (5) who are not ready to play independently from their parent but would love the opportunity to play in a safe and inclusive Forest School environment.

This program is ideal for families who would like their children to play outside along side similar aged peers. It is also a perfect opportunity to meet the facilitator in preparations to other programs available at Mountain Road Homestead.

The children who join the Sapling Program will have the opportunity to enjoy:

·        Creative play in the mud kitchen, a place where they can create so many unique and delicious “foods”.

·        Explore the forest; which provides so many different topography types to help strengthen your child’s gross motor skills.

·        Weekly nature craft to build on those fine motor skills and creativity

·        An inclusive environment where you child will have the security of their parents/guardian close by, but gaining independence and self confidence while playing alongside other children as the weeks progress.

·        The freedom of playing outside, getting dirty and building on that happiness nature provides for all of us.

Let’s build a generation of children who find peace and happiness in nature.
