When:
Friday, Oct. 5. Forest School will begin at 2pm & go until 5pm when
the Corn Maze opens (this way you can eat lunch at home & your
littles can get a nap on the way over - it's a 45-50 minute drive)
Where:
Forest School at Lake of the Oaks, Corn Maze in St. Patrick (5 minutes
from our place). I will send a map & directions when you RSVP.
How Much: Forest School is free; Corn Maze is $5 for 5 & up, free for anyone 4 & under
What:
Forest School will be outside the whole time, so dress for the weather
& bring a change of clothing! Boots would be good - we have a nice
clearing for group activities but we hope to do a little hiking as
well. We'll have planned art & nature study & also plenty of
time for making a snack & free play as well. Materials will be
available for children to build forts, swings & whatever their
imagination & team work comes up with! This is for ALL ages, babies
through high school & adults - children over about 12 would be fine
to explore the woods or kayak as their parents are comfortable (there
are 40 acres of forest!). Bring an ergo or other baby carrier if you
have it so you can hike comfortably - or let me know & you can
borrow one of mine (I have 2). We have sand & water for littles so
be sure to bring what you need for messy play ;0)
I'd
like to do this every season so the children can really observe the
same place & see how it changes. The next of course will be winter
& probably in January if we are not in Florida ha ha
Please RSVP by Tuesday night if you plan to come so I can be sure to have enough supplies & snacks etc.
Thank you!
