Family Outdoor Activities at Soule Homestead in Massachusetts

Soule Homestead presents this annual favorite, Summer Fun at the Farm! These 1/2 day, drop-off programs for ages 4-7 are sure to be fun for your little sprout!

Soule Sprouts (half day sessions: 9AM-3PM): This program is the perfect introduction to summer camp and fun on the farm. Each week will focus on a different theme: early mornings will feature activities, crafts and games focused on the that theme. After snack time, children will engage their creativity and imagination in many of the traditional activities and exploration at the farm, checking the garden, playing in the mud kitchen, storytelling, arts and crafts, and cooperative games. Every day on the farm is different, so each day is a new adventure, and every week unique.

Session 1: July 14-18: Homes and Habitats: wild animals and plants need places to live and grow… just like humans! In this session, children will explore different habitats and learn about the plants and animals that call them home. Games and crafts that feature the habitats we explore will be a part of each day.

Session 2: July 28-August 1: Stories and Sprouts: In this fun-filled week, each day will feature a different book and activities that match the book. Things like seed planting, games, art projects and outdoor exploration will be a part of every day.

Session 3: August 11-15: Animal Adventures: This animal focused program returns for another summer. Learning to care for some of the farm’s residents is the focus of this week of programming. Daily animal chores and enrichment building are big parts of every day. Animal themed games, crafts and stories round out the farm day fun.

PRICING: Members: $200 Non-members: $225
