2024 Seasonal Nature Tots

Nature Tots

This toddler & adult program includes stories, songs, duck feeding, and a stroll through our gardens and trails. This is an outdoor program. The trail is stroller accessible and the program is breastfeeding friendly.
This program is ideal for little ones who are walking (~1yr) up to 5 years old.

Nature Tots sessions are available as a drop-in program. Payments can be made at the door for $15, or you are able to purchase Nature Tots session passes online, as a single session, five sessions, or 10 sessions.

Session passes CAN be transferable, but must be used in the 2024 season. The program runs rain or shine, but may be cancelled in extreme weather. 

 

Offered for two time slots on Fridays:

9:00 a.m. – 10:15 a.m.

10:45 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.

 

Your session passes are valid for any of the days/times.  The theme will be the same for all sessions each week, so the intention is that you visit no more than once per week.

We always listen to the requests of patrons, so if you would like to suggest another day or time of day we should hold this program please email us at bgprograms@mun.ca. We need a minimum number of registrants to make a program financially viable for us but if we collect your names and find we have enough we will do our best to hold a program at that time!

  • a snack and drink for your child(ren)
