Grandparents Into Nature offers bonding experiences for grandparents and grandchildren built around nature - Photos by Jenny Erickson, Springfield, Missouri, United States and Mateusz Stachowski, Poland

Two-Day Workshop

We offer the basic One-Day Workshop including additional Nature Wisdom activities and sharing with grandchildren methods.

The second day allows time for assimilation and comprehension. Participants gain a deeper understanding of the Sharing Nature with a Grandchild methodology.

Workshops can be customized for your group. For example, the format could be changed to an evening, full day and morning session. Just tell us your needs and we are pleased to set up a workshop specifically designed to meet them.
