TimberNook Friends in the Wild: A Nature Play Series for Ages 4-12
Join us for an adventurous summer at Friends in the Wild, a nature-immersive program designed to spark imagination, creativity, and deep connection through play in the great outdoors. Each session offers unique play experiences in the woods, ravines, and waters of Big Maple Lake Park, a hidden gem in Hobart featuring wide open spaces, shaded wooded trails, and a peaceful creek perfect for exploration and discovery.
At TimberNook, play is the work of the child. Whether building forts, balancing on logs, splashing in the water, or diving into imaginative storylines, children will be fully engaged in sensory-rich, child-led adventures that foster physical strength, social growth, and creativity.
Our mixed-age environment allows younger children to be inspired by the leadership and creativity of older peers, while giving older children the opportunity to model, mentor, and deepen their play. This dynamic setting naturally encourages collaboration, empathy, and flexible thinking—essential life skills, all nurtured in nature.
