BUSH KIDS

Wild Adventures Await for your pre-schooler at Bush Kids! 🌿✨

Looking for a way to get your preschooler into the great outdoors? Our Bush Kids program is all about giving children aged 3.5 to 6 years the freedom to explore, play, and learn in a wild, natural environment—just like kids should.

For 3 hours, your little one will be guided by our experienced Bush Kids Leaders and Qualified Early Childhood Educators, diving into nature-based adventures that spark curiosity, build resilience, and create unforgettable memories.

Here's what your child can expect at Bush Kids:

  • Building and crafting with hand tools (yep, even wood whittling!)

  • Fire striking and bush cooking (In fire season!)

  • Loose parts play that lets their imagination run wild

  • Learning knots and building their own bush cubbies

  • Nature crafts—think painting with earth pigments, weaving, and sculpting with clay

  • Identifying plants and wildlife, connecting deeply with the world around them

We know that kids aren't meant to sit still. At Bush Kids, they'll have the chance to engage in adventurous and sometimes risky play—developing the kind of confidence and resilience that only comes from the wild.

If you're searching for a way to slow down, unplug, and give your child space to grow and explore at their own pace, you’ve found it.

Ready to let your child roam free in nature’s playground? Join us at WildPlay Co’s Bush Kids! 🌿
