Winter 2022 Homeschool: Heartwood • Ages 6-12 • Wednesdays, January 5 - February 9 (6 program days total)
The Winter is a special time to be in the forest. As the earth quiets down and the plants rest, a more subtle yet magical world is revealed. Come embrace this wonderful season and learn to love the outdoors all-year long. Activities will include learning to make fires for warmth & making tea, following animal tracks in the snow, creating hand-crafts by the hearth, and venturing out to explore the wide-open landscape.
Heartwood is the core of our nature-connection curriculum, the trunk from which our other programs branch out. Heartwood has been carefully crafted since 2011 to provide a progressive learning journey and comprehensive foundation in deeply relating to the natural world. Through games, stories and exploration children learn:
Outdoor Safety and Awareness • Animal Tracking • Edible and Medicinal Wild Plants
Wilderness Survival Skills • Bird Language • Ancient Crafts
Ecology • Community • Self-Discovery, and much more
