FOREST COURSE
Encouraging curiosity about nature and an appreciation of God’s creation, the Forest Course gets kids playing and exploring outdoors! Each week, we will study a topic that mirrors what is happening as the season changes, like mushrooms or seeds and berries. Age appropriate crafts, picture books, science projects, and hands-on exploration and observation in the forest focus on the topic of the week to engage every learner!
The Forest Course is designed for homeschool families and integrates science, art, poetry, and all sorts of exercise including hiking, games and canoeing. Covering a range of subjects that make learning about the natural world fun for any child, the Forest Course seeks to build connection, resilience, outdoor skills and nature knowledge, as well as encouraging each child to learn about the character of God.

Explore the lake, trails, and forests at Solid Rock on snowshoes. Look for animal tracks, observe cloud types, and chart weather and snow conditions. Has your child already done snowshoe excursions with us? The older groups will be exploring new trails!
Each group will be led by a Solid Rock staff member and will include basic instruction, skill building, and will finish indoors with hot cocoa and a memory verse.
Classes are 2 hours long and meet once a week for 4 weeks, starting February 4/5/6.
Snowshoes and poles are provided; please let us know if your child has their own gear.
Packing list: Water bottle and Warm winter clothes with a waterproof outer layer.
In the event we don’t have enough snow to do the Snowshoe Course, we have a super fun back-up plan!
The 4-6 and 6-8 grade class will do wilderness outdoor skills including shelter building & natural insulation, what to wear & what to pack for winter hiking/camping, fire building, and water collection & purification.
The 2-4 grade class will do a mix of outdoor & indoor games, crafts, storytime, and science projects, focusing on the water cycle, snow & ice, and animals in winter.
