Dragonfly Nature Club | St.Johns | 3rd Thursday Morning

What is Dragonfly Nature Club? 

Dragonfly Nature Club is a way to get kids Ages 5-11 in Jacksonville and St. Johns County outside exploring nature in a structured and safe way. Each session is unique, drawing from the seasons, the surroundings, and the kids involved to create a memorable experience.

 What does a Nature Club session look like? 

• Nature and Science mini lessons
• Focus activities to teach observation and attention
• Open ended activities to build creativity, teamwork, crafting skills, and more

A typical Nature Club session would start with a 5-10 minute mini lesson on a topic such as birds to get students interested. Students will then participate in a focusing activity such as silent sit spots to open their eyes and ears. Finally, students will choose as a group what type of activity they will work on together to increase skills or knowledge, such as a scavenger hike, or attempting to build their own nest. ​

What to bring?

• Bugspray
• Closed toed shoes
• Resuable Water Bottle
• Optional: Snack (A snack will be provided for all students)
