ABOUT THIS EVENT
Whales, Wattles & Winter Wonders
Noosa Botanic Gardens, Gubbi Gubbi Country
Join us this term for our Nature Babies Playgroup, held in the peaceful surrounds of the Noosa Botanic Gardens on Gubbi Gubbi Country.
Each week, little ones and their carers are invited to slow down and savour a morning of gentle nature connection through sensory play, simple seasonal crafts, songs and nursery rhymes, and storytelling under the trees. We also go on a short bush walk, where we explore, observe, and occasionally forage edible seeds and fruits.
Our playgroup offers a calm and nurturing space for babies and toddlers to safely explore, build confidence, and develop physical, social, and emotional skills—while igniting imagination and creativity through nature play.
This term, we follow the rhythms of our Growing with Nature curriculum with the theme Whales, Wattles & Winter Wonders—celebrating seasonal changes and the magic of our local environment.
All sessions are guided by experienced and fully qualified forest school and therapeutic nature play mentors, who support families in building strong and lasting connections with the land—and each other.
