Trails & Tales

Toddler Tales was revamped and launched in October 2012 as Trails & Tales, a seasonal 6-week series for children ages 2 - 5. The program was redesigned to incorporate  more outdoor experiences, more hands-on interaction with nature and natural items, more diverse activities, all revolving around a seasonal theme for the duration of each series. 

Trails & Tales will be conducted as a six week series. Pre-enrollment is required and space is limited to 20 children per class. Each series is $15 per child for WNS Members, or $20 per child for non-members.  

Trails & Tales will be offered for a single day in between each series for families who wish to sample it before enrolling in a series. Pre-enrollment is NOT required for single day sessions, but space is limited to the first 20 children who sign in.
