Join Parenting Off The Beaten Path at Prairie Ridge Ecostation in the Nature Playspace.
For this meetup we will use all our time to enjoy the playspace at the Ecostation. The Nature Playspace is located approximately 0.3 miles from the parking lot and can be accessed via a mulched path. Babies, toddlers, and big kids of all ages can find something to do in the playspace which includes a large sandy dig pit, a tunnel, a small climbing wall, a small inground slide, a mud kitchen, a small pup tent, a ball ramp system, and lots of moveable stumps, large tree branches, and other natural materials.
(Note: The Ecostation closes promply at 4:00pm. Our meetup will wrap up around 3:30pm to give everyone time to use the bathroom, walk back to cars, etc before closing time out of courtesy to the staff.)
These come-as-you-are Nature Meetups are designed to give kids and their adults minimally-structured time in nature to play, explore, and connect. Our objective is to support all families in expanding their child’s experiences in nature.
