After snack time, children will engage their creativity and imagination in many of the traditional activities and exploration at the farm, checking the garden, playing in the mud kitchen, storytelling, arts and crafts, and cooperative games. Every day on the farm is different, so each day is a new adventure, and every week unique.
Session 1: July 15-19: Gardens and Growing Things: in this week of programming, our “sprouts” will focus on the garden, helping to plant and care for our summer crop. There will be garden themed games, stories and crafts to make each day complete.
