Nature Club is an experience where children develop an appreciation for our natural world by engaging in it.  The goal of the program is to create a sense of wonder at the world's richness.  Nature Club is offered as part of CREST Child Care.  The program operates on a 4-5 week unit taught by our very own CREST staff.  During their weekly lessons children are taught about such subjects as:

  • Marine Biology

  • Butterflies, Bird and Insects

  • Gardening

  • People and Nature: We are One

  • Sustainability

Nature Club participants also attend occasional excursions to the following:

  • Nearby State Parks

  • SM Pier Aquarium

  • Beaches

  • Ballona Wetlands

  • City Facilities

  • And more!
