Led by local outdoor wellness practitioner and TEDx speaker, Tansy Dowman, the session will include a variety of playful and interactive nature-based activities suitable for mixed ages. Families may explore sensory awareness exercises, mindful movement, nature discovery games, seasonal scavenger prompts, natural mandala making and simple nature crafting using found materials from the landscape. These sessions are recommended for ages 4 - 11. Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
Please note, this activity will take place outside. Please dress suitably for cold weather.
