Lithia Nature Play

Charlotte Mason inspired Nature Play Group - Forming Spring 2026

I'm gathering interest for a CM inspired nature play group in the Lithia, Valrico, and Riverview area or Tampa Bay. Aiming to begin in Spring 2026 (possibly earlier if there is enough interest).

The group welcomes all ages, with a focus on children in K - 6th grade. We will meet on Fridays to spend time outdoors, play, and build community.

Our weekly rhythm will include:
- Outdoor park meetups and free play
- Exposure to some of the "riches" (rotated and planned by families)
- Nature study and time in God's creation
- Occassional field trips, depending on group interest

Interested group members must agree to the following:
- Active group participation, attending at least twice per month
- Plan or host one of our meetups each semester
- No sharing our group events or adding outside members before they have been vetted, this ensures group safety and comfort, which is of utmost importance.

My sincere hope is that this group flourishes into something beyond just a play group, but a true group of friends and support. To facilitate this, I would ideally like to keep the group at a manageable size, and with familes who can commit to being consistent so we can form deep and lasting friendships.

If this resonates with you and you are in the Lithia, Valrico, Riverview area (or okay with driving to the area) please connect with me!
