Winter Nature Play Adventure

Winter nature play adventure 2017

Just over 30 children joined us to explore Belmont Wetlands State Park’s sand dunes and the elements of fire. We had four excited volunteers and the awesome Helen from Belmont Wetlands State Park to create a comfortable welcoming atmosphere for families to enjoy.

“What a wonderful day playing with families in the dunes and exploring the elements of fire. Small contained fires for children and their families to get to know the properties of fire.
I would estimate 100% engagement! Of course marshmallows, popcorn and chocolate were much enjoyed after the physical exertion running up and down the dunes!”

“Thanks for another fantastic nature play”

“Perfect weather for a perfect day!”
