Raising Wild Ones Nature Enrichment Program is a program that encourages both sensory and motor development through free play outside. Our program will harness the wonder of God's creations and cultivate a love and respect for nature through experience and brief lessons.
Winter semester will be the months of January and February with 4 sessions a semester
Sessions will be on the following Mondays 9:30- 11:30am
1/5, 1/19, 2/2, 2/16
Sessions will take place at varying outdoor locations in the Ashland and surrounding area. Locations may be subject to change due to reasons outside my control. If a location needs to be changed I will notify those enrolled as soon as possible. Please see the 4th photo for planned locations.
Sessions will take place where an indoor shelter is accessible in the event the weather is too bad to be outside for the entire session.
There will be two groups. The littler group is recommended for children ages 18 months- 4 years. The older group is recommended for children ages 5-9 years. If you feel your child would be better suited for a group that is not their age range that is perfectly fine! If you have a child you would like to enroll who is outside of both age ranges you are welcome to reach out to me, at emily@raisingwildones.org, to discuss this.
When determining what group to place your child we ask that you consider your child's level of independence. The older group will be participating in a brief nature related lesson that will include discussion and hands on material. The younger group will also participate in a nature related lesson in the form of books and exploring hands on material. If your child is able to engage in a lesson, most of the time, with minimal prompting then they will likely be appropriate for the older group.
Children 5 and older may be dropped off. Please use the appropriate “drop off” selection when checking out.
Please bring a water bottle, snack if desired, and dress your child appropriately for the weather.
The maximum session size will be no more than 16 students.
A sibling discount of 10% will be offered using code SIBLING10. If enrolling 3 or more children reach out to Emily via email at Emily@raisingwildones.org
