Wild play and outdoor recreation experiences for children and their families in the Shoalhaven, NSW.
While we arrive each day with a flexible plan, we will be learning on the hop and flowing with the interest and energy of the children on the day. We begin and end our day in the village (a shelter from the weather, fire circle and nearby bush paddock). There’s acres of wilderness to explore, rocks to scramble, bushcraft skills to learn and practice, paddling in the creek. Outdoor recreational activities might include:
- nature inspired art and craft
- sculpture
- baking bread on the campfire
- weaving
- learning knots
- stories or songs
- building shelters or rope swings
- whittling wood
- playing trail games
- observation walks
- paddling in rock pools
- identifying birds, plants and animals.
Nature Play will feel like a big fun family for your child. We lay the foundation of respect and kindness for self, each other and a reverence for Mother Nature from the very beginning of our day. Our soft skills practices will include deep listening, self, to each other, being brave to speak our truth, offering knowledge when we feel called, and asking for help when we need it.
