Seahurst Science & Nature Program
"Natural enrichment on a learning journey guided by the senses"
Every single time, we have had magical time experiencing and learning about nature with Kevin. He has a very keen sense, great eyes, and an extensive knowledge of Nature. He interacts constantly with every child, helping them connect with Nature. This is why my daughter had a great time in his class from the first time we attended, even though she is very shy. I highly recommend Kevin’s class as it will give your children a great opportunity to experience and learn about all the great things found in nature in the Pacific Northwest.

"It's just amazing! I love that Porcupine takes us off-trail so we see things we normally wouldn't see. Porcupine is such a fun teacher!" --Sophia, age 12
Why enroll today?
If your child is ready to adventure and explore the natural world we would love to have them join our group. This is a program that teaches hands-on science and nature connection. By slowing down and asking questions this program taps into the intuitive learning, one driven by the senses. Give your kid a break from structure and being on time. How about a mind that knows how to survive in the wild one that knows the plants that are safe to eat and that knows where to build a primitive shelter. We will practice primitive friction fire making techniques. By asking questions, observing and allowing for creativity, Kevin will be teaching how to approach a new subject with an intuitive mind not a subject that has been studied over and over with the same results. This class will be small 12 kids ages 10-14 so please sign up soon as spots will go fast.
About our teacher: Wilderness Awareness School Trained Naturalist Kevin "Porcupine" O'Malley has been leading adult and family courses in nature for over a decade.
