In spring, as the warm sunshine awakens the earth, all things gradually come back to life. We invite you and your child to step into the springtime forest and explore the mysteries of nature together through stories, sensory experiences and making natural art crafts. We will share fantastic adventures in the forest with you, igniting curiosity for nature and fostering an appreciation for its beauty.

In the quiet night, the forest is shrouded in tranquillity, with stars twinkling above. Let's search for the footprints of animals and insects, quietly observe their traces, feel the forest at night, and experience the different mysteries of nature.

This camp allows you to collectively experience the beauty of nature and build stronger parent-child connections during the activities. We welcome parents and children to participate in this adventurous and creative event, together receiving the gifts of nature!
