This Sunday after Sunday Assembly, we invite children and their parents or grandparents to celebrate Earth Week with a walk on the monastery grounds. Kids On the Prairie walks are a chance for kids ages 5 to 15 to explore parts of the monastery grounds with a naturalist. Children 3-4 are also welcome with parent support. This month we will feature burned areas, signs of spring all around and whatever engenders a sense of wonder and surprise. We might even pull some garlic mustard!
We meet at the kiosk near the main parking lot at 10:15 am and return at about 11:30 am. Social distancing and masks are required. Closed shoes or boots are advisable since the trails have variable terrain.
Kids On the Prairie is open to all, including families outside of the Holy Wisdom communities. Feel free to invite friends who may be interested. Volunteers from Friends of Wisdom Prairie make these walks possible. If you have questions or are interested in getting involved, please contact Julie Melton, jmelton@uwalumni.com.
