My Sprout + Me
Duration: 6 sessions meeting once a week
Time: 9:30-11am
Days: Wednesdays + Fridays
Cost: $150
Ages: 1-4 years old
My Sprout and Me is an 6 week program designed for caregivers and children ages 1-4 years old to experience the farm together in a community setting. With Ambler Farm Educators, caregivers and their “sprouts” will help feed the animals, enjoy tractor rides, and participate in enriching group activities. We spend all of our time outside in all weather so be sure to dress appropriately. We usually start the program by making sure all of the animals are fed and watered. Activities change seasonally, however some of our favorites are painting with mud, sorting eggs, and creating “toys” for the animals. Feel free to sign up for one or both days! We typically end the session with a tractor ride.
Our next session will start the week of April 5th and run through the week of May10th. Children must be at 1 year old before registering for this program. We offer a multi-sibling discount. Members receive $50 discount per additional child and non-members receive a $25 discount per additional child. Please note that this is not a drop off program.
