Welcome to Forest Play in Canmore, Alberta
At Forest Play, we build authentic connection
to nature, self and others
through stories, games, skills and play.
Our Learning Philosophy
Nature's Tracks Forest Play programs are based on the cycles in nature and the life stages children naturally move through. Our programming is based on the the 8 Shields of the Coyote Mentoring Model (www.8shields.org).
This model is a unique blend of traditional knowledge from cultures around the world,
scientific research and is grounded in the rhythms of the natural world
With safety as our priority, our programs run exclusively outdoors save for time spent in
our heated canvas wall tent in winter.
