**Target Audience:** children aged 6-10, with a focus on neurodivergent children.

**Program Focus:** The program aims to foster connection, emotional balance, and resilience through mindfulness and nature-based activities. We'll be exploring gentle connection opportunities, mindful nature walks, and creative reflection activities. 

Wilderness Wisdom is a once-a-month outdoor program designed to help children build a love for nature while developing key social-emotional skills like teamwork, empathy, and self-awareness.

Each two-hour session takes place in a local natural setting — a forested park, riverside trail, or community green space — where children explore, play, and learn through guided adventure, creativity, and mindfulness.

🌲 What to Expect

• Nature Exploration & Play: Cooperative games and creative challenges that inspire curiosity and teamwork.
  
  

• Mindfulness Moments: Gentle breathing, grounding, or sensory awareness activities that help kids feel calm and centered.
  
  

• Creative Expression: Nature art, storytelling, and reflection activities that build emotional awareness and confidence.
  
  

• Group Connection: Each session ends with a gratitude circle, encouraging children to reflect on what they learned and how they felt outdoors.
