Seedlings Event (Croydon North)

Venue & ticket info

Seedlings is a 2-hour Nature Play 4 Kids (NP4K) program for ages 3-6 years old which offers young children a joyful introduction to the outdoors through play, curiosity, and connection. Designed as a single session, with a term-based option available, NP4K is a semi-structured 2-hour experience and each session balances guided activities with opportunities for unstructured play and child-led exploration. NP4Ks supports children to build a strong foundation for lifelong connection to the natural world and a sense of connection, with nature, with others, and with themselves. Through direct nature-based experiences, children develop confidence, trust, and a feeling of belonging. NP4K encourages children to engage with the world through their senses. Feeling mud, listening to birds, watching leaves move, and exploring textures all help build awareness, language, and understanding of the world. Play is how children learn best as it encourages exploration of social interactions, emotions, fosters creativity, builds communication skills and helps a child to understand how the world works! Caregiver participation is welcomed and encouraged, helping children feel secure as they explore. Come and experience the magic of nature through play, connection, and our senses. Each session is unique, shaped by the seasons, the environment, and the children themselves. On the day of your session, it is essential you bring the following: • A caregiver is required to attend this event • Covered, walking shoes - no open toed shoes please! • Water bottle and snacks. • Clothing appropriate to the weather conditions and suitable for play. • Please ensure you and your child are wearing sunscreen. • Note that the session will be cancelled if the weather conditions are deemed to be too dangerous For more information on Nature Play 4 Kids, visit https://www.natureplay4kids.com.au/
