Nature - Based Events
Discovery Junction Homeschool Co-op hosts weekly nature-based events in a serene environment. Our events typically span 2-3 hours and revolve around engaging themes. Each event includes a captivating book reading and features an art project, craft, activity, lesson, or demonstration related to the theme of the day.
What sets us apart is our emphasis on allowing children ample space to freely roam and discover the natural beauty that surrounds us. We believe in fostering a sense of wonder and curiosity in our young learners as they explore the wonders of nature.
