Join us for a Family Nature Class this fall, and make connections with the natural world that will last a lifetime. Through science-based exploration and outdoor play preschoolers and their caregivers will experience the UW Botanic Gardens using their senses. Class will begin with an opportunity to explore several learning stations based on the week's theme where your child can practice fine motor skills, sensory investigation, creativity, and pre-math and literacy skills. Then the group will gather together to do a name rhyme and topic introduction before heading out on a hike. Along the way, we will play a game and listen to a story related to the theme. Above all, we will explore and let the natural curiosity of the young ones direct our adventures. WHO: Children ages 2-5 and their caregivers. The group maximum is 12 children. Friday afternoon classes are open to 4-8 year olds. WHEN: Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday, and Saturday from 9:30-11:30am, and Friday from 1-3pm WHERE: Washington Park Arboretum, behind the greenhouse (2300 Arboretum Dr E, Seattle WA 98112) COST: $18 for 1 child and 1 adult, additional children $9.
