4:30 PM - 5:30 PM    Buildwave® | A hands-on building game! - FREE DEMO: Buildwave (K-5th)
Looking for ways to expand your child's creativity? When things don't go their way, can they adapt? Buildwave® is a STEAM + SEL course that helps your child discover their creativity and resilience. During each class, your child will receive wave after wave of materials they'll love like blocks, bricks, and other hands-on pieces. The waves of building are structured like a game, with energetic music and visuals elevating the experience for maximum engagement. Each wave, they build, then disassemble. Build, disassemble. Repeat. It's an opportunity for your child to discover their creativity again and again, but it's also an opportunity for them to fail without judgment. Builds will fall down. Friends will be reluctant to share. We guide your child through these moments of frustration and equip them with strategies to adapt. To them, they're playing an outrageously fun game, but they're also learning fundamental skills they'll carry forever. Learn more at www.buildwave.com.

Kids Naturally is an innovative outdoor program for kids. It uses stories and creative play to create a spark, and gives children the chance to kindle that spark though free-play while immersed in nature. At Kids Naturally, each day begins with a story and a collaborative game. Then kids explore the woods to play, discover and learn together about the nature around them, guided by Kids Naturally Mentors and staff. All the while they strengthen important physical and social/emotional skills essential to child development. This program takes place at Nahanton Park and offers a monthly enrollment.   Have a question?  Reach out to the staff at Kids Naturally at info@kids-naturally.com
