Seedlings Caregiver + Child Nature Series
For children ages 1-3 years old and their loving parent or guardian
This is a gentle way for families to play and explore nature together! We savor the wonder that unfolds in every season by offering space for nature play, time to socialize, and explore together. Hands-on learning and supported risk-taking is encouraged! Please dress for the weather and note that all programs at Notchcliff are immersed in nature. 100% of our class time takes place outdoors, rain or shine. Let's stay present for our little ones - please, no cell phones except to take photos or use in case of emergency.
​
The Fall and Spring Seedlings class is offered weekly on Tuesdays, Fridays OR Saturdays from 10-11:30 a.m. in a 12-week series from September to December and March to May. General registration is $180 for the 12-week series or $195 if you bring a sibling.
