We’re excited to showcase Empowered by Nature, PlayMakers Club in our member spotlight this week. They are a local organization dedicated to creating meaningful, play-based learning experiences where children can explore, grow, and thrive.
Empowered by Nature offers a range of programs designed to support children at different stages, including early learning, school-age care, camps, and enrichment programs that focus on creativity, movement, social development, and connection to nature. Their approach is all about learning through play in a safe, supportive, and engaging environment.
Their newly renovated space is something truly special, now featuring a vibrant jungle gym designed to inspire imagination, encourage active play, and bring even more joy to their daily programs. It’s a space built with kids in mind, where learning and fun come together naturally. As they continue to grow and welcome new families, we encourage you to follow along for their monthly program & event calendar for upcoming opportunities to register.

What a beautiful day we had at ECOPlay on Friday!

☀️ The sun was shining, and our crew had a blast exploring the playground, spotting signs of spring, and noticing all the new colors popping up in the forest. 🌺

We had some new friends join us this week — it was so special to welcome new kiddos into our group!

We’d love to welcome your little explorers too!

We meet every Friday and are an inclusive, low-demand group where kids can explore, connect, and play in ways that feel safe and comfortable for them.
Supported by kind leaders and understanding peers, it’s a space where everyone can just be themselves.

Highlights this week included:
🌈 Playing with the parachute
🦎 Searching for salamanders
👀 Using our eyes to spot signs of spring
🎨 Making the park colorful with chalk!

Want to join us? Send us a message — we’d love to connect!

🌿🎶 Nathan is Back at ECOPlay This Friday! 🎶🌿

We’re super stoked to have Nathan joining us again this Friday sometime during ECOPlay for a 1-hour session! If you’d like to join in, reach out—we’d love to have your learner be part of the fun.

We have an amazing mixed-age group, including a fun crew of young teens who have been stepping up as great mentors for the little ones. If you have a teen at home looking for (or more so you 😜) outdoor exploration and connection with like-minded peers who love D&D, art, and being silly, this is the perfect group!

Can’t wait for another awesome day of play, mentorship, and music magic with Nathan! 🎵✨

🌿🎶 Music in the Park! 🎶🌿

We had an absolute blast at ECOPlay with Nathan, our music man, bringing the magic of music to the park! 🥁🎸 The kids (and adults!) had so much fun making music together, and to top it off, his sweet therapy dog joined in on the fun too! 🐶💛

It's was fun way to celebrate DJ as he moves on to the next adventure! We will miss you DJ!

🎵 Let us know if you’d love more music in the park and if you would like your kiddo to join us! 🎤🌳✨
