A Summer Piano Camp for “Wild” Kids.
Alex was an active 5 year old - a little on the spectrum - and always enthusiastic about piano!
I noticed that he loved the outdoors. Was there a way to reach him, and other kids - using the power of nature and music?
I reached out to a mutual friend - who taught outdoor skills to preschoolers. Together we fashioned our first “Nature and Music Camp” for littles!
That was 2018. Today - I am thrilled to share “Wild Notes - A Nature/Music Camp for Young Children” with you!
Imagine a camp where music and nature come together, creating magical moments of discovery for children aged 4-9. Our 4-Day Music & Nature Camp is the perfect blend of sensory exploration, music-making, and hands-on activities designed to delight and engage.
