Treehouse magazine has partnered with The Barnyard to offer summer hands-on nature inspired classes for kids ages 4 - 12 and their grown-ups. Each class has a theme that explores science, technology, engineering, art and math (S.T.E.A.M) in a fun and creative way! Children will make a nature-inspired project using natural and upcycled items to take home; this also includes a book reading relevant to the theme explored.
