Welcome to Little Explorers Nature Club -
Where Curiosity Comes to Life!

Designed for curious minds ages 2–10, our outdoor Learn, Play, & Explore sessions invite children and their families to slow down, dig in, and discover the wonders of God’s creation together.

​

Each week, we dive into a new nature-inspired theme through rich stories, hands-on activities, creative crafts, sensory exploration, and plenty of time for unstructured outdoor play.

​

Children also receive a themed fact sheet and nature badge (a pin-back button!) to celebrate what they’ve learned and explored — a fun and meaningful way to track their adventures throughout the season. When you sign up for a seasonal session, your child also receives a Little Explorers backpack to hold and display their growing collection of badges!

​

We carefully select living picture books that spark curiosity, invite wonder, and highlight the beauty of God's creation. Some of our favorite storytime reads have included Owl Babies, Fletcher and the Springtime Blossoms, Goodbye Autumn, Hello Winter, I (Don’t) Like Snakes, A Seed is Sleepy, The Honeybee, and Fungus is Among Us!

​

What Makes Us Different?
Our sessions are semi-structured, rooted in a Charlotte Mason philosophy, and Christan World-view,  our sessions are designed to encourage wonder, connection, and joyful learning in the great outdoors. Parents and caregivers stay and participate, making this a shared experience for families, not just a drop-off class.

​

Where We Gather:
We meet weekly at rotating outdoor locations in the Bowie, MD area. Exact locations are shared with registered families to help keep our group small, safe, and serene.

​

Here’s what your weekly adventure will include:

• Nature Walk & Exploration
  A child-led nature walk filled with discovery and delight — we slow down and see the world around us.

• Storytime in the Wild
  Each week features a beautiful living book that brings the theme to life and sparks meaningful conversation.

• Hands-On Craft and/or Activity
  Nature-themed, age-appropriate crafts and experiments with gentle guidance from parents or caregivers.

• Nature Badge & Fact Sheet
  Children receive a themed nature badge (a pin-back button!) and a fun fact sheet to take home — a meaningful way to remember what they’ve learned and track their adventures throughout the season.

• Unstructured Free Play
  Time for children to move freely, play creatively, and build friendships in a natural setting.

• Community & Connection
  More than just a club — it’s a space where families connect, kids and moms alike make friends, and lasting memories are made.

​
