use your outdoor voice.

We believe that children who play in nature grow up to be adults who protect it. That’s why our education programs—held at Crow’s Nest Preserve in Elverson, Chester County—get kiddos outside as much as possible. They turn over logs to see what’s underneath, climb on fallen trees, hunt for crayfish, squish in mud puddles, and swim in the creek. They enjoy the sort of unstructured free play that stretches their bodies and their creativity.

We offer a variety of programs year-round for children age five to early teens.
