Fall Camp at China Camp State Park

China Camp State Park, 101 Peacock Gap Trail, San Rafael, CA 94903

Let childhood happen outside.

​Fall is a wonderful time to slow down, explore, and discover. At Snails & Turkey Tails, children spend five hours immerse in the natural world at China Camp - exploring trails and shoreline, looking for wildlife, building with sticks, splashing in puddle, creating with natural materials, climbing, imagining, and making new friends.

​We don't rush children from one activity to the next.

​We give them time to play.

​Time to wonder.

​Time to get muddy.

​Time to follow a curiosity.

​Time to turn a stick into a fishing pole, a pile of leaves into a fairy house, or a fallen log into the beginning of an adventure.

​The children and the natural environment help shape each day.

​

WHAT WILL WE DO?

  • Every day is different, but your child might:
  • Explore forest trails and the shoreline
  • Search for birds, bugs, shells, an other signs of wildlife
  • Climb, balance, scramble, run, an move
  • Build forts and creations with natural materials

  • Play in mud, water, sand, and earth
  • Invent imaginative games and adventures
  • Listen to stories and sing songs
  • Observe the changing colors, textures, sounds, and smells of fall

​

The adventure unfolds as we go!
