This program is designed to get young children out in nature and exploring their local parks. A backpack of tools will be provided for the duration of the walk, filled with tools to explore the outdoor world more deeply. All children will have their adult with them and there will be a nature educator to guide the walk and activities. We will provide the tools to explore but encourage creative and curiosity-based learning.Price:

Important Notes (please read):
All programs will begin promptly at the start time listed, so please plan to arrive a few minutes early. If you arrive late, we cannot guarantee that the group will still be at the listed starting location, as most programs involve at least a walk out in the park.
Pre-registration is required for all attendants for this program, and space is limited.
This is NOT a drop-off program. All registered children must have a registered adult supervising at all times throughout the program.
Online registration will remain open until 1hr before the start of the program, unless it is sold out.
All programs take place at least partially, if not fully, outdoors and will likely include at least a walk, even if it is raining. Please be prepared for the weather, including coats and proper footwear for unpaved paths.
We plan most programs to walk along the park trails, so please let us know ahead of time if you or anyone in your party has mobility challenges so we can make adjustments accordingly.
If this program is sold out, please complete the online registration to be added to the waitlist. You will not be charged to be added to the waitlist. If spots become available, we will contact you via email no later than the day before the program with instructions to complete registration and payment.
By attending our Nature Neighbors programs, you are supporting BNC's mission of connecting the community to our natural world. We look forward to getting outside with you!

Please come prepared for the elements as refunds are not available for weather-related conditions except in the case of severe weather.
