Connections Nature Play

Have you seen these in the woods? It's us!

Connections Nature Play is Diamond Valley's Forest School! We have been offering nature-based child care for children ages 3 to 6 from September to June since 2023.

We spend the majority of each day outdoors, so we bring with us a portable bucket toilet and privacy tent, and portable hand washing station as well as a backpack tarp and picnic blankets to have lunch and story time.

Next time you see us out, feel free to come say hello!

Looking for some fun outdoor play and learning for your children this summer? Rediscover Play Nature School/Bushcraft & Wilderness offers high quality programs for kids!

Rediscover Play is back for a Summer of fun! Join today!

Friendly reminder of easy things we can all do to stay tick safe!

Kuddos to Canmore"s new shop - Mountain River Life - for gifting us a copy of PEAKS AND PAWS Animals on the Ascent storybook! Beautiful illustrations and accurate information about a variety of species.

If you're out in Canmore, check them out!

DID YOU KNOW THAT FROGS BREATHE THROUGH THEIR SKIN? Because of this, their presence is an indicator of water quality!

It's fun to catch and observe frogs and other amphibians, but please remember:

👉 Humans should not touch amphibians. Use a net!
👉 Our skin oils clog their pores which they use to breathe!
👉 We can easily damage their skin as our skin is rougher than theirs.

Fine motor and Friendship! Today the children made friendship bracelets to practice their fine motor skills!

Thank you, Diamond Valley Dental, for letting us ride in the chair and try out some of your tools! The children had a great time, and learned so much! What a lovely space and friendly staff!

HEAR OUR YOUTH CENTRE PROPOSAL! Presentation runs 49:20 to 1:03:00 with discussion afterward running until 1:34:30.
