🌿 Mini Nature Artists Garden Sessions – Winter Term 2026 🌿
Outdoor Creative Play & Nature Art for 1–7 year olds
Bracknell | Mondays & Wednesdays | 10:00–11:00am
Join us at the Mini Nature Artists Garden — a beautiful, nature-rich outdoor space created to inspire curiosity, calm and creativity in little ones.
These sessions offer a gentle, child-led environment where toddlers and preschoolers can move freely between sensory invitations, land art, crafts, and open-ended exploration — all at their own pace, in their own time.
We bring together nature-based creativity, early years development principles and the magic of the seasons to create thoughtful, grounding sessions for young children and their grown-ups.
