Little Explorers Nature Club

Little Explorers Nature Club, designed for children aged 2–10, offers Charlotte Mason–inspired outdoor sessions that ignite curiosity and promote joyful, hands-on learning in nature.

Our semi-structured “Learn, Play & Explore” sessions introduce a new nature theme each week! Children enjoy storytime, theme-based crafts or experiments, and plenty of free play and exploration in the great outdoors.

We currently offer three weekly sessions:
Monday Nature Club | 9:30 AM – 12:00 PM
Wednesday Nature Club | 9:30 AM – 12:00 PM
Held at local trails and beaches across Prince George’s and Anne Arundel counties (all within 30 minutes of Bowie, MD). These sessions emphasize nature exploration and community.

Thursday Backyard Studio | 9:30 AM – 1:00 PM
Hosted in our private outdoor space in Bowie, this cozy, play-based enrichment program includes Bible time, STEAM activities, crafts, sensory play, storytime, and outdoor free play, perfect for PreK through early elementary learners.

All sessions are Charlotte Mason–inspired, faith-based, and family-friendly. Parents or caregivers attend alongside their children to foster a supportive, connected community.

Charlotte Mason Community

We're a group of moms just starting out and also more experienced. We are working our way through readings focused on Charlotte Mason's 20 principles. We meet once a month to discuss what we've read.
We also have a monthly nature walk and I organize Recitation Nights quarterly for families to share their work.

Fieldwork Fridays

“Fieldwork” is essentially nature study. We get out in nature and explore it together! Fieldwork Fridays are a great place to connect with other homeschool families and learn about the Charlotte Mason approach to nature study. This is a relaxed group that welcomes homeschoolers that use any methodology in the home. Charlotte Mason experience and/or application is not needed to enjoy our group, it simply acts as a framework to aid in planning our outings and group activities!

We will meet in the Murray (Calloway County, KY) and/or Paris (Henry County, TN) areas. Please reach out with any questions and if you’d like to help get this group going strong!
