Little Roots Adventures is a week-long, nature-based program designed to help children slow down, explore, and connect with the natural world. Each day includes a balance of guided mindfulness activities, nature exploration, creative arts, and free play.
Through hands-on experiences, such as learning about local plants, nature crafts, and group activities, children are encouraged to build confidence, curiosity, and a sense of belonging outdoors.
This program is intentionally small and thoughtfully guided to ensure each child feels safe, supported, and engaged. All activities are led by a certified guide with training in Wilderness First Aid and CPR, with a strong focus on safety and emotional well-being.
Parents can also register to join in as tag-alongs with the group after passing a background check. To initiate a background check, please send your full name and birthdate to Recreation Director Kelley Cox kcox@newcastlecolorado.org
Parents will be required to sign a liability waiver online and each day at drop-off.
