Nature’s Playroom
Ages 3, 4, and 5
Children must be 3 by December 31, 2008 and fully potty trained.

Pre-schoolers are invited to explore the wonders of nature on the trails, fields and pond in Cherry Lawn Park.  A wonderful complement to a child’s nursery school experience, visits with the animals, nature songs, stories and crafts are all part of the fun. After a morning of exploring with classmates children have the option to stay for Lunch Bunch.

For the afternoon session, many children are coming from a morning program and need a few moments to relax and have lunch with their classmates before starting their exciting and fun filled afternoon.  Lunch time is therefore included in the afternoon session.
