- Exploring the five senses
- Creating a natural craft
- Gross and fine motor activities
- Eco facts, games and individual activities
- Healthy snacks (including our own garden produce!) are provided to suit most diets.

ABOUT THE NATURE PROGRAMME
the team
The Green Kids nature team is experienced, knowledgeable and very enthusiastic about eco-education and kids!
In our world where experience is increasingly framed by the rectangle of a cellphone or computer screen, we feel the need to immerse more children in the surprise and joys of soil, plants, and insects.
June/July 2022 Green Kids Holiday Club
the very successful holiday club was fully booked out again!
Green Kids Club - join us on 1st and last Saturday of the month. Book soon for 27 August; and 3rd and 24 September 2022!
Fun filled holiday and saturday adventures
We run age-approriate Holiday Programmes and Saturday morning sessions for children aged 4-6; 7-9; and 10-12 years, in Rondebosch, Cape Town. Each session has a maximum of 10 children, to ensure focused individual attention.
Experiential learning about nature
Green Kids immerses children in the wonders of life in our back gardens. They learn about needs and life cycles of plants, soils, insects, and the continuity of life in our gardens; through practical experiences. They dig, they play games, they touch, taste, listen to and smell the treasures of nature. They also create their own personal craft, often plants to take home, based on the topic of the session.
Peace of mind
We provide a safe and inclusive space for children in a large beautiful venue, specifically designed for Green Kids. It includes the secret garden, chickens, eggs, worm farms, growing fruit and vegetables, compost heaps, and the fish pond. Healthy snacks are provided, to satisfy all diets and includes garden produce!
