Join us on the land!
Open to: Families with children ages 4-14 years old
Description:
Family Days are a wonderful opportunity to spend the day connecting with your children, yourself and a community of supportive peers. Come play, share, learn, and open your heart!
Family Practice Period:
We start our morning with a program for everyone, weaving the theme of the day into songs, skits, and family activities. We have plenty for your children, with mindfulness activities geared toward youth ages 4 – 10 as well as a new program for older youth, ages 11 – 14.
Youth Program:
During the second half of the day, youth ages 4 – 14 will attend age-appropriate groups with our experienced Spirit Rock mindfulness leaders. They will play, make art, sing songs, and practice mindfulness together.
Parents’ Program:
Parents of children ages 4 and older will have an opportunity to meditate, hear a talk related to parenting as practice, and connect with each other through group discussions.
Pre-registration is required so we can plan ahead, especially for the kids’ activities. This is a popular event that usually sells out, so register early!
