Secret Gardens Winter Sessions Caregiver/Child Nature Classes

For children from one to five years of age, we offer several nature classes each week in the Secret Gardens Outdoor Classroom in Beverly, MA. Victoria Hackett leads each nature class. They are 1.5 hours from 9:30-11:00 during the Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer. Each nature class begins with a Welcome song and story which leads the group into a nature-based art activity. Children and parents/caregivers are then invited to play in our Secret Gardens where they will find additional activities to explore in our Maker Space, Fishing Bridge, Mud Kitchen, Wash and Dry Garden, Story Walk, Raised Garden Beds, Row Boat, Water Wall, Log Hotel, and so much more. On cold weather days, we have access to our “Club House.” Each nature class concludes with a gathering that includes a story, reflecting and a Good-bye song.

Our nature classes provide important socialization for young children. The experience acclimates and invites each child into an outdoor adventure of playful learning. It also gives parents an opportunity to meet other parents and caregivers in the area and discuss parenting issues.
