Welcome to the Nature Makers Club
Fridays, 3:00–5:00 PM
Ages 5–8
Nature Makers Club is a hands-on, creative class where children explore, build, and invent using natural materials and recycled objects. Set in an outdoor, open-ended environment, this class invites young makers to slow down, get inspired by nature, and bring their ideas to life.
This small, thoughtfully curated class blends the magic of stick-building, nature art, loose parts construction, and imaginative design challenges. Children might create fairy houses from bark and moss, build sculptures from cardboard and found objects, or design their own inventions using recycled materials. Every session encourages curiosity, creativity, and confidence through meaningful, hands-on exploration.
Each week, children are welcomed into a space filled with thoughtfully prepared materials and invitations to create—sparking imagination, problem-solving, and independent thinking.
