Every forest holds a story, and every child becomes a storyteller. Tales of the Wild blends nature exploration with imaginative play, inviting kids to step into amazing tales inspired by the woods around them. Through inquiry-based learning and open-ended activities, children discover mythical creatures and natural mysteries to bring them to life through movement, storytelling, and collaborative play. Each day is a new chapter written by the group, guided by curiosity and creativity.
