Rewild Arkansas is a non-profit organization that provides nature programming for all kids to encourage exploration and a love for outdoor play experiences. We believe that kids need more outdoor experiences and less time on screens for optimal physical and emotional development and well-being. Our community programs are for all children. Nature is for everyone!

Christy & Melissa, co-executive directors of Rewild Arkansas Inc. and owners of ReWild The Child NWA LLC,  have spent the last four years of providing numerous outdoor programming for kids, and have developed Rewild Arkansas Inc.’s own forest school curriculum. This unique curriculum focuses on sensory play, fine motor skills, and social skills development. Rewild Arknasas Inc. programming encourages nature exploration, peer connections, and communication skills. Children’s brains and bodies need movement and sensory play to learn best. What better environment to provide sensory rich opportunities for brain development than the great outdoors!

Activities include: hiking, nature art, building projects, stories, games, nature education topics, and snack time.

We value our relationship with our community partners to be able to utilize the beautiful nature spaces in our town, and we pass that along to our forest schoolers through appropriate trail and greenway etiquette, pack it in/pack it out, and leaving nature as we found it so that they grow up and continue to take care of our parks and preserves.
