Because so many of you have chosen to join us for Nature Class, we were able to invest in a larger, sturdier tuff tray for our little explorers!
It might seem like a small purchase, but these are the things that help us continue creating fun, hands-on experiences for your kids.
Thank you for showing up, signing up, and supporting Explore & Play NH Nature Class. We truly appreciate every single one of you🌱 -Emily & Erin

Our last two months of outdoor nature class are upon us. We can’t believe September is almost here… shhh, don’t tell this beautiful weather! We may be sipping iced pumpkin coffee and pretending it’s fall already, but we’re soaking up every last bit of summer fun on the farm.
We know that the fall is a busy time for many families so we've gone ahead and prepped the next two months of registration ahead of time and hope you'll be able to join us!

Reminder: the payment link is in the description box at the top of the Google Form; please pay the same day as you register so we can add your child to our weekly attendance list.
If we don't receive payment we will need to open that spot back up to other families. If you can't pay at time of registration please reach out to us-we are very understanding and want every child to be able to come and have fun with us!

We can't wait to explore & play with you soon,
Emily & Erin

ICE CREAM WEEK WAS EXTRA TASTY!🍦
Last week on the farm we made our own vanilla ice cream everyone was able to participate in making as well as taste test. For sensory play we made pretend ice cream sandwiches with sponges and shaving cream and during art we stamped pool noodles & bubble wrap to make ice cream cones!

For those that loved the ice cream recipe, and those that didn’t get to try it and want to, the recipe is below:

In a gallon size ziplock add:
1/4 cup salt
Ice

In a smaller ziplock add:
1 cup half & half
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp sugar

Close small bag and put inside the large bag with ice. Close large bag and shake hard for a couple mins until vanilla ice cream forms.

This morning we had a lot of Fun in the (very hot) Sun with our Nature Class friends!☀️
From making colorful sun catchers and dancing our hearts out during freeze dance to splashing in the water, digging in the sand, and making sweet memories together, it was a morning full of play, exploration, and connection.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, we can’t wait to play with you all again soon!
