Details

The program includes two distinct groups, offering age-appropriate activities and adventures: the Nuthatches (ages 5–8) and the Bluebirds (ages 9–12).
Over the weeks, nature awakens: plants emerge, rains create muddy puddles perfect for tracking animal footprints, and birds return to build their nests and sing. The Nuthatches and Bluebirds will explore all of this together, following the rhythm of the seasons.
This is a weekly adventure for homeschooled children or for children who attend school with permission from their teacher and school administration, who are looking to socialize, nurture their curiosity, stay inspired by nature, and develop strong skills along with ecological knowledge.


Activities include storytelling, music, tracking, nature crafts, survival skills… and lots of games!


RL-24 Tax Slip (Childcare Tax Credit):

Most families are eligible for the RL-24 tax slip, a Québec provincial tax credit covering 67% to 78% of the program cost. This childcare expense credit can bring the cost per session down to roughly $20–$30 (+ tax).

Because our programs are recognized as eligible childcare services, families can access the credit in two ways:

  1. When filing your income taxes
  2. Through monthly advance payments (available upon request)
