SUMMARY:Families in the Forest
DESCRIPTION:Registration required; limited to 20 participants. \nFamilies are invited to join SEA volunteer and California Naturalist Holly White‑Wolfe for a gentle\, sensory‑rich morning along Clear Creek designed especially for young children and their caregivers. This two‑hour outing introduces families to the restorative benefits of time in nature—supported by research showing that even a couple of hours outdoors each week can reduce stress\, improve mental clarity\, and support overall well‑being. Through simple activities that engage sight\, sound\, scent\, and touch\, participants will learn how to slow down\, notice more\, and build a deeper sense of belonging to the natural world. \nThe walk will take place on mostly flat\, easy‑to‑navigate terrain\, though closed‑toe shoes are recommended. The morning also includes a story time on picnic blankets and a playful visit from a “local gnome\,” who will help children identify nearby mountains\, waters\, and plants.  Service dogs on leash are welcome; no other pets\, please. The event will be cancelled in the event of a storm. \nTo prepare\, families should bring a picnic blanket\, water\, snacks\, and layers for changing weather. Each adult and child must complete a registration and waiver form here. After registering\, participants will receive the exact meeting location along Clear Creek. This small‑group experience is designed to foster curiosity\, connection\, and community among families who care about the local ecosystem. \nQuestions? Contact juliet@ecoshasta.org.
