- Kneehigh Nature Adventures - Summer Only
Kneehigh is a summer drop-off program at Sheep Pasture for young children ages 3 to 5 (or entering kindergarten). Your child will enjoy daily hikes, games, crafts, songs, and snacks with our pre-school naturalist. We had your little adventurer in mind with every program we designed. Each week will have a different theme and new activities, so kids can come to sessions throughout the summer and learn something new!
*All children must be potty trained to attend. Each session requires a minimum of 5 children and a maximum of 10 children.

Thank you to all of our Kneehigh Adventures families who participated in our 2018 programs. We had lots of fun sharing information about nature with all of our young adventurers. Registration for the 2019 season of Kneehigh programs will begin in February 2019.
