Homeschool
Nature
Program

Weekly outdoor science + nature adventures for homeschoolers ages 7–12.

A Classroom Without Walls

Each week we explore forests, ponds, and meadows - using nature itself as our curriculum. Kids learn science skills, build confidence outdoors, and follow their curiosity.

What We Do Each Week

Spark of the Day

A question, mystery, or hands-on prompt that gets kids curious and focused for the day’s adventure.

Explore + Investigate

Creek dipping, shelter building, habitat mapping, bug hunts - kids dive into real outdoor science and discovery.

Ecosystem Connection

Each week we highlight a nature concept and connect it to the landscape we’re exploring, giving kids a clear theme to follow.

Sit Spot

A few quiet minutes to slow down, listen, observe, and reflect - helping kids build awareness and connect with the natural world.

Do I need to stay during the program?

No - this is a drop-off program. You’re welcome to stay for the first few minutes if your child needs a warm transition.

​

What if my child is shy or new to outdoor programs?

Totally fine. Our instructors specialize in helping kids feel comfortable, supported, and included at their own pace.

​

What about weather?

We run in light rain, snow, and sunshine. If truly dangerous weather is expected, we’ll move to a safer location or cancel class and add a makeup day.

​

Where will classes take place?

We rotate through local parks, natural areas, and trails. Families receive a full itinerary before the session starts.

​

How big are the groups?

Typically 6–12 students, small enough for every child to get attention and feel part of a community.

​

What should my child bring?

A backpack with water, snacks, weather-appropriate clothing, and curiosity! We’ll send a simple packing list before the first class.

​

What if we need to miss a day?

No problem. We don’t offer refunds for missed days, but we’ll always share what the group explored so you can try it at home.
