Scout Programs

Moose Hill offers programs for all levels of Girl and Boy Scouts. Our qualified educators are available to lead your group to explore the diverse habitats of the wildlife sanctuary and cover many natural history topics. We can design a program to fulfill the requirements of a specific badge. Scouts and leaders both enjoy our indoor overnight program that includes a naturalist-led night hike and morning badge program. Self-guided hikes can also be arranged. Ask us about opportunities for Eagle or Gold Award projects.

Birthday Parties

Looking for a place to have a fun and memorable birthday for your child? Moose Hill offers birthday party programs for children ages 4 to 12. Each two-hour party features an hour-long guided program, which could include outdoor exploration, a craft, story time, or active games. The second hour you continue the party under your own supervision in our beautiful party space. Most parties are scheduled on weekends, but a weekday party can also be possible.

MOMS Clubs or Play Groups

Discover the wonders of Moose Hill during special programs just for your MOMS Club or play group. Every month we offer two different themes to choose from and each 60-minute program includes stories, games, a craft, and indoor circle time. Outdoor exploration may be included depending on the weather and theme. Programs are geared for children aged 3 to 5 though toddlers may attend. Parents may also register their child for our weekly preschool nature series, Knee-High Naturalists.

Homeschool Programs

Our Homeschool classes are designed to expose children to the wonders of nature through outdoor exploration, hands-on activities, science inquiry, and quiet reflection. The majority of our classes will take place outdoors at the wildlife sanctuary, and then back inside for a wrap up. We offer classes for individual students as well as Group Homeschool Programs that can be customized to meet your needs. Each session is aligned with the Massachusetts State Curriculum Frameworks for Science and Technology.
