Mindfulness in Nature – Winter Nature school holidays

MINDFULNESS IN NATURE – WINTER NATURE SCHOOL HOLIDAYS PROGRAM

This “mindfulness in nature” program provides children with a unique opportunity to disconnect from screens and technology and reconnect with the natural world. Through outdoor education, nature play, and free play, children can develop their imagination and creativity, while also promoting physical activity and exercise. By incorporating mindfulness techniques and forest therapy, children can also learn to develop greater self-awareness and emotional regulation, and feel calm, energized, and relaxed.

This is a great opportunity to immerse your child(ren) in nature, connect them with nature, and engage them in some creative artistic, grounding, and calming activities. We aim to create a fun, safe and engaging environment that encourages children to explore and connect with nature. By getting outside, reducing screen time, and immersing themselves in nature, children can develop a deeper appreciation for the natural world and gain valuable skills and experiences that will stay with them for a lifetime.
