Tiny Treks Parent Participation Camp

At Tiny Treks we believe nature is our best classroom. We do know that young children need predictability and routine, so you can expect there will be some elements of musical circle time, nature projects, themed story time and STEAM learning throughout our exploration. Every week our Parent/Child programs feature a new destination that explores our open spaces, beaches, farms, creeks, forests and more - rain or shine - all led by our incredibly experienced outdoor educators. Our teachers are completely focused on your family and sharing their love of children and the outdoors through a rich curriculum each class. Together, we lift logs and count ants, explore our senses, dig in the mud, run through meadows, learn about birds and bugs, hike in the forest, play at the beach, and, most importantly, nurture curiosity and instill a love of the natural world in our children. *This class is 100% outdoors.
