Ages 3-5. OFFERED ALL WEEKS as FULL DAY or HALF DAY.** This widely popular program is a terrific introduction to growing, working, and playing in an outdoor setting. During the week, children make frequent trips to visit the chickens, goats, donkey, and pony, getting to know the animal’s habits, what they eat, and even their personalities. In addition, they will plant and grow various crops, some of which they may bring home in their own decorated pots, and explore the red wigglers and other creatures of compost. Finally, the children will have adventures in the natural areas outside of the growing areas, including the Ice Pond, where they will find insects, amphibians, and all sorts of other creatures that use or make the pond their home. And along this journey, there will be many crafts, games, songs, and stories. NOTE : Child must be age 3 by the session start date.
