Fall Mess Makers

This program offers preschoolers and early elementary school children a chance to explore their creativity with and curiosity using messy outdoor play!

More information

Messy, sensory play is an important part of child development. Together with Ms. Mo and our NDC volunteers, you will explore and create with all kinds of messy things. We will make works of art as well as just good old messy fun with a mix of natural and man-made materials. After we make messes together, you’ll go home clean!

Looking for a program with a little more nature lesson, but still a chance for some hands-on messy play? Give our *NEW* Naturally Messy classes a try this fall.
