Once Upon a Farm with Jenni Half Day AM

Seedlings-Adventures in Nature for Young Explorers blends exploration, creativity, and early science learning in a joyful outdoor environment—ideal for curious young nature enthusiasts! Join us for a fun-filled half-day as we discover how plants grow and the vital role of pollinators! Through engaging stories, hands-on activities, and outdoor adventures, children will experience the wonder of nature from seed to blossom. Campers will learn about the plant life cycle through hands-on activities and engaging picture books. Campers will create seed starters to take home and watch them sprout! Young farmers will visit the gardens, meet friendly farm animals, and explore the magical fairy forest on the KDS Tiny Farm. Using natural materials, students will create art inspired by the plants and creatures that we encounter.
