Farm Play - 2014

At the beginning of this year the mama’s of Peace Farm started ‘Farm Play’! 

 

The day is simple and organic. It  includes; nature arts and crafts, singing, dancing and story telling focusing on a feature animal and plant each week.

The children are nourished by our home grown produce at morning tea, before venturing outside for some ‘farm play’. We take our baskets in search of seasonal goodies such as cherry tomatoes, feathers and flowers. After a visit to the chooks, sheep, cows and goats we hike down to the forest, where we make some nature mandalas from the things we have gathered and then wrap up with some more song, dance and forest play!

We will soon be running some Farm Play sessions at our monthly ‘Hands-on-the-Land’ work days. This will help to create a really family friendly and educational day for all!
