Tiny Ones is priced for the entire family’s participation and is the perfect way to spend the day with your little, in the woods. Tiny (Wee) Ones is a great way for the entire family to come enjoy time in the woods. This experience is designed specifically for a tiny child and their adult, but, at TimberNook we love and appreciate the entire family, so this program is priced with the family in mind. There is only one price, and this is a family price. Your little one will have a great time playing the TimberNook way; if you have two or more littles there is room, if your little has one or more older siblings, bring them along. We think that cross-age play is a great way to enjoy nature. One price for all, let’s everyone come and play the TimberNook way…come and play with us!

• In the event of impending severe weather during a TimberNook program we will take shelter in our designated storm shelter
• Programs are held rain, shine, heat or snow. If the weather is just too severe to be safe, programs are cancelled and a make-up class will be scheduled (if not possible tuition will be adjusted). Remember that soap, water and a bath will be your best friend. Expect that your child may get wonderfully messy, dirty, wet, cold or hot, but always happy!
