Winter Program 2025

Winter is such a beautiful under appreciated season.

A season where many people hide inside their homes and wait for better weather. But winter brings so many fun opportunities to explore and adventure.

There are so many unique opportunities for play in the winter months that you can not get to enjoy any other time.

There are two programs available for children aged between 4 - 10.

Oak Tree Program is a 1/2 day program and is ideal for younger children who are new to forest school or who would prefer shorter winter hours.

Evergreen Program is the full day program which is geared towards children who are 4 + and who would benefit from a full day outside. This program is also perfect for children who attend kindergarten full time and need a little break outside at Mountain Road Homestead Forest School.

Some of the fun activities we will be enjoying during our time at Forest school are:

  • Snowshoeing

  • Sledding and tubing down our sledding hill

  • Track identification

  • Snow kitchen fun

  • Squirt water colored painting

  • Maple Syrup (later in the season)

Plus so much more! We will be enjoying snacks and lunch inside the heated garage. We will also be taking breaks inside to warm up and create some crafts.

Programs start January 6th
