Power of Play: Nature Collages

At the North Shore, we know that play can be a powerful tool for a child’s growth and development. Have your child join us for a fun, creative morning of outdoor play. We will set out on a short nature walk, taking in the natural world around us and focus on things we can see, touch, smell, and hear. As we walk, we will collect items that may catch our eye and use them in a creative art project.

This activity will focus on patience and focus, fine motor skills, visual scanning and problem solving, creativity and self-expression, and so much more!
