Creative & Nature

Create, Connect, Explore, and Grow

Through art experiences and time in nature, children are invited to create, connect, explore, and grow. They have opportunities to connect with God and the people around them, explore the beauty of His creation, and grow in confidence as they discover more about who God created them to be.

Creating art can be calming and restorative. Studies suggest that even 45 minutes of creative art-making can significantly reduce cortisol, the body’s primary stress hormone. Through art and time in nature, children can slow down, be present, and experience the beauty of God’s creation.

Through these experiences, children can discover the joy of creativity and begin to recognize the unique gifts, perspectives, and creativity God has placed within them.
