Outdoor camps and classes for children in Vancouver

Earth Heads is based on experiential learning. The classes are designed to give children an insight into their environment, giving real-life context to help them understand how the world works and how they fit into it. With a stronger connection to the world around them, children will not just learn about ecology; they will gain independence, self-confidence, self-awareness, social skills, conflict resolution and better communication.

For children of all ages, learning in nature will awaken and stimulate their senses and enhance their sense of well-being, confidence and knowledge.

Classes

All children love nature. Earth Heads classes help kids connect with their world, love learning, get hands-on and have FUN.

Our Story

Earth Heads is based on experiential learning. The classes are designed to help with all areas of a child’s development: emotional, physical (gross and fine motor skills), knowledge and understanding of the world, language, social and creative development.

For children of all ages, learning in nature will awaken and stimulate their senses and enhance their sense of well-being, confidence and knowledge. Even for very young children nature is a basic learning point from where everything like learning colours, numbers and sensory exploration can begin.

What the parents say

“Is it an Earth Heads day yet?” You wouldn’t know it by the way our 5 year old son is so excited to head off on his weekly adventure with Lisa to learn and explore, but he has separation anxiety that has prevented him from enjoying many other classes. Lisa is one of those rare teachers that engages children in an amazing, magical way and he absolutely loves her class! She also continues to wow us with her nature knowledge and her hilarious, informative way of documenting the kids adventures in a follow-up email for parents after each class that makes you feel like you were a fly on the wall (or nearby tree). We heart Lisa!

"Both my son and my daughter have been attending Earthheads since they were toddlers. Both are die-hard 'Earthheaders.' It is the one activity they will always participate year round during every season; any chance there is Earthheads, they will attend! Teacher Lisa is amazing. She knows each child individually, and her write ups about every local ecology session are equally fantastic and educational. My children have become completely comfortable in so many different outdoor settings and now they also have an incredible understanding with a deeper appreciation for their environment, their future...all this, we owe to Earthheads."

“What rich learning Lisa!! I learn so much just from reading your notes! Thanks for taking the time to type them every week”

“Thank you for all the updates on the children’s adventures. You always put so much time and thought into your classes and write-ups. Thank you.”

When asked what Enye thinks of Earth Heads she replied, “an adventure in the forest is the best adventure there is!”

Lisa is a walking encyclopedia of nature. My son simply adores her and can’t wait for EH every week. He wants to go every day and says that when he’s a bit older he wants to help out Lisa with younger kids. Enough said.
