A parent or caregiver participating in adult & child together classes will learn ways to support competence in their child, ways to nurture innate wonder and curiosity, and ways to help their child(ren) learn to be a part of a group of learners. Encouraging helping and caring comes naturally when teaching with animals.

Year-round and seasonal opportunities for playing in and exploring nature are endless at The Children’s Farm. Activities include feeding and caring for animals; hiking in our surrounding woods and fields; planting (spring/summer)/harvesting (summer/fall) vegetables from the garden; creating a winter bonfire (winter); exploring ice-covered ponds (winter); planting seeds(spring/summer); gathering eggs; and learning how to ride the pony (spring/summer/fall).
