Two days, two transformative play experiences❄️🌲

We’re kicking off the new year with two drop-off TimberNook adventures for children ages 7–12, each offering something truly special in the woods of winter.

✨ January 2 | 9am–1pm | Winter Treasure Hunt
Digging through deep snow, children will work in teams to uncover buried survival treasure. What’s hidden beneath the snow? Each team will discover different tools and clues that invite problem-solving, teamwork, and hands-on survival skills. Who will find their treasure first—and how will they work together to unlock what’s inside?

🌙 January 3 | 3–6pm | Winter Night Games
As the sun sets, the woods transform. Children will experience the novelty and wonder of being outside in the dark—playing classic night games with a TimberNook twist. Crunching snow underfoot, glowing lantern light, and the quiet magic of winter at dusk create an unforgettable evening of movement, imagination, and adventure.

Two days. Two very different experiences. One unforgettable way to start the year in the woods. 🤍

These kids came to their 2nd day of our Winter Festival with ideas already in their heads of what they wanted to do, and they made sure they RAN to get the supplies they wanted.

One of the pillars of TimberNook is child-led play. Child-led play gives children the freedom to follow their own ideas, interests, and instincts—building confidence, creativity, and problem-solving skills along the way. When children are trusted to lead their play, they practice decision-making, self-regulation, and collaboration in ways that feel meaningful and joyful. At TimberNook, we see how this kind of play nurtures resilient, capable children who learn best when they are deeply engaged and truly in charge of their own experiences.

All this snow lately has us thinking… it’s time for a little holiday magic in the woods! ❄️✨

On December 22–23, children ages 7-12 are invited to step into a truly immersive TimberNook adventure right here in the woods of Wisconsin.

🎅 Day 1: Santa’s Workshop
Kids will transform the woods into Santa’s bustling workshop—building, creating, becoming elves, and delivering “presents” through imaginative play. It’s the kind of open-ended, big-body movement that brings stories to life!

🎄 Day 2: Festival of Trees
Children will design and build their own woodland Festival of Trees using natural materials and loose parts—each tree as unique as the child who creates it.

This two-day program is packed with wonder, creativity, and holiday cheer. The perfect way to celebrate the season outdoors!

✨ Spots are limited—register today to save your child’s place in the magic.

Winter in Wisconsin doesn’t mean pressing pause on outdoor play — it actually opens the door to some of the best learning and adventure of the year. ❄️🌲

From boosting immunity and building real-world resilience to sparking imaginative play in a snowy woodland “blank canvas,” winter gives kids what indoor spaces simply can’t.

They move more.
They regulate better.
They sleep harder.
They connect deeper.

And they discover that Wisconsin winters aren’t something to endure… they’re something to embrace.
Swipe through to see why we love getting kids outside all season long — and why they thrive because of it. 💚
If you’re ready to let your child experience the magic of winter in the woods, our TimberNook programs are here all season long.

🌲 Step into the sweetest little Christmas bakery tucked right inside the woods…

🍪 On December 6th from 9:30-11am, our Tiny Ones program (ages 1–6 with a caregiver) will explore their very own Christmas woodland bakery — where leaves become sprinkles, sticks turn into rolling pins, and imagination is the secret ingredient in every pretend cookie.

And the best part? ⬇️

🎅 These tiny bakers will also get to decorate real cookies to take home (or share with Santa… if they make it that far ).

Little hands will mix, scoop, squish, pretend-bake, and create the sweetest holiday memories under the trees in the winter wonderland.

If your tiny elf loves messy play, holiday magic, and delicious treats, this is the coziest adventure of the season.

🚀 Full STEM ahead! This Wednesday, kids ages 7–12 dive into a day of brainstorming, tinkering, testing, and laughing their way through the woods as they build their very own pumpkin catapults. 🎃 🔧

They’ll work together using loose parts, tools, and natural materials — discovering how levers work, how far they can push their ideas, and just how strong a forest-built catapult can be. There’s something magical about watching kids sketch out a plan, hunt for the perfect stick, adjust a hinge, and then suddenly realize… IT WORKS! 😄

And after lunch? The moment they’ve been waiting for — a full-on pumpkin hurling competition where their creations get put to the ultimate test. 🎃🔥
Expect soaring pumpkins, huge smiles, and lots of cheering as they see whose design can launch the farthest.

If your child loves to build, create, experiment, or just get wonderfully messy and inventive outside… this is the midweek adventure they will talk about for days.

👉 Register on our NEW WEBSITE — spots are limited, and the pumpkins are ready to fly!
