December Holiday Program “Celebrations”
Grow Wild offers children aged 6 years and older an amazing opportunity to spend their holiday time outdoors immersed in nature, cultivating connections, an appreciation of nature and exploring their creativity.
Our adventures take place on the mountains, forests and beaches of Hout Bay, Constantia and the Atlantic Seaboard. This amazing four hour adventure consists of moving (Rewilding the Body practices), walking, discovering creatures, rocks, plants, trees, water and much much more, naturally. Our intention is for children to be relaxing their nervous systems, feeling grounded and calm. We have signed a nature awareness element incorporating art processes involving sculptures, mobiles, mandalas and creating beautiful objects using “dead/ gifted” natural materials in nature.
This incredible holiday program will leave your child with memories for a lifetime and benefit their wellbeing.

Nature inspires creativity in a
child by demanding visualization
and the full use of the senses.
Given a chance, a child will bring
the confusion of the world to the
woods, wash it in the creek, turn it
over to see what lives on the
unseen side of confusion. Nature
can frighten a child, too, and this
fright serves a purpose. In nature,
a child finds freedom, fantasy,
and privacy: a place distant from
the adult world, a separate peace.
