🕚 11:00am – 3:00pm

Looking for a meaningful day out with your little people?

Join us for four hours of adventure, connection, creativity and mindful fun as we slow down, explore together and make beautiful memories.

Together we'll:

🥤 Start with a delicious nutritional shake at Shakes & Ladders.

🌿 Enjoy a fun and engaging mindfulness session with Emma, discovering simple ways to connect with ourselves and nature.

🚶 Explore the outdoors through movement, curiosity and play.

🛒 Working with a grown-up and a buddy, children will visit the local IGA to choose something to contribute towards our shared picnic, encouraging independence, decision-making and generosity.

🧺 We'll finish the day together at Burtons Reserve, enjoying conversation and connection between the big and little kids alike.

This isn't a drop-and-go activity—it's a shared experience designed for children and the special adults in their lives.
