At Sheldrake and the Larchmont Reservoir Conservancy, children can participate in nature classes and camps starting September 20. They’ll get to play games under the shade of a tree, find frogs at the edge of the pond, listen to stories on the banks of the stream, roll over logs to learn how animals recycle. Children’s programs are jam-packed with adventure, discovery and fun and are designed for a variety of ages: Tiny Trekkers (ages 3-5 with caregiver), Young Explorers (ages 4-5), Eco-crafting (kindergarteners) and Holiday and Vacation Camps (ages 4-6). For those children who want to take a different approach to getting close to nature, there is Yoga for Kids (kindergarteners-3rd graders), which will teach them some basic yoga postures in a relaxed way, while having them enjoy the outdoors and appreciate their surroundings.
