Each weekly class has a new lesson and encourages hands-on exploration and discovery. Children will learn through outdoor discovery walks, nature games and crafts.
This course is designed especially for kindergartners who almost universally have a love for nature. It will emphasize the general features of the woods and animals with a different topic each week that includes discovery walks, “hands-on” exploration and nature games and crafts.
The Arboretum’s
After School Club series is designed so students can have some time dedicated solely to topics related to the natural world. Children will engage in age-appropriate activities that become more challenging as the program progresses club by club. There will be art projects, hands-on investigations and experiments, microscope work and integrated field studies.
Students will have access to the arboretum’s indoor Stone House classroom with its many animals, and its outdoor classroom which includes 16 acres of woodlands, miles of trails, vernal pool, sugar maple, and many other special features.
Participants are sure to have a fun educational experience as they explore and investigate the wonders of nature with others their own age.
