Nurture in Nature – Natureplay
EXPERIENCING NATURE THROUGH NATUREPLAY!
Our aim is to encourage children’s natural curiosity about nature and the outside environment. We work as advocates of the new revolution ‘No Cotton Wool Kids’, and with this in mind we have created Wheako Taiao (Experiencing Nature) Natureplay.
Natureplay meets once per week, always in an outdoor environment. This allows children the opportunity to experience the gorgeous outdoors and explore the wonderful world around them. Whether this is a beach or the local park, we aim to provide tamariki with the freedom to explore, discover and be active. We believe that if we dress right for the weather conditions we can still have a fun learning experience even on the days when the weather is not the best.
From jumping in puddles to climbing trees, children are fulfilled with a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction when playing outside. They learn to establish a connection with nature.
We invite you to join us at our Natureplay sessions and would love to see you there. You are welcome to contact us at anytime for more information about where and when we meet. Bring a hats and sunglasses in the summer, or warm layers in the winter months!
