Night Owls Walk
Calling all night owls! Once each month, join one of our Early Childhood Educators on an evening walk. We will be visiting nature trails across Milton's neighbourhoods for some exercise before bedtime. We'll bring the flashlights! Come dressed for outdoor activity - we will do our best to ensure that our walks are accessible for all participants.
Please keep an eye on our EarlyON Facebook and Instagram pages for upcoming walk dates and locations!

Play Time at Ford Neighborhood Park
Join us at Ford Neighbourhood Park, year-round and in all weather, to experience the park in a different and surprising way. Educators will facilitate a variety of activities including exploration, art, science, music, and coordination. Children will try different activities on their own or make new friends and discoveries together. Thursdays at Ford are not your average visit to the park, Thursday is THRILL DAY AT FORD PARK! Please dress according to the weather, bring snacks and beverages. A change of clothes may also be a good idea as kids sometimes surprise us with how messy and wet they can get.
Age: All Ages Welcome
Wednesdays- 9:00am - 10:45am at Ford Neighbourhood Park, 1400 Leger Way, Milton
Thursdays- 9:30am - 11:00am at Ford Neighbourhood Park, 1400 Leger Way, Milton
Music & Movement at Ford Neighbourhood Park
Each week we will let the sounds of nature and rhythms of all genres lead us in a Nature Filled Musical Party. Join us as we dance and sing in the fresh air and feel the earth under our feet while we explore musical expression using instruments, our creativity, and the music you and your little ones love. This program is designed for All Ages and Abilities who love the outdoors, music, and a great beat. Come dressed appropriately for fun, community, and an upbeat Party in the Park!

Exploring Mother Nature at MillPond
Join us on an exploration through the natural nooks and crannies of Mother Earth guided by our Educators. See what nature has to offer by both walking, as well as taking time to pause in nature's treed areas of exploration at Millpond. Noticing, slowing down, exploring, and digging are ways we can discover what Mother Nature has in store for us at Millpond. This program runs in all-weather so please dress appropriately. Meet by the open field parking lot.
Age: All Ages Welcome
Fridays - 9:30am-1:00pm at Rotary Park, 100 Garden Lane.

Digging in the Dirt
Teaching children about gardening fosters a love for nature, promotes hands-on learning, and cultivates life skills like patience, observation, and responsibility, all while connecting them to the natural world. Join us at the Viola garden as we explore our garden, observe the living things that can be found there, plant seeds, and see what grows. Please come prepared for messy play as we really will be digging in the dirt!
This program will start again on Monday, May 4th.
Age: 0-6 Years
Mondays - 9:00am-11:00am at 1450 Leger Way, Milton ON
