This week we’re thrilled to share with you an excerpt from our guest post hosted by our friend’s at Pop-up Adventure Play. We got in touch last spring as they helped us launch our first series of pop-ups and are happy to say that Megan and Cam have been following their Playworker training program since September.

In the space of a few short months, we fell under the spell of pop-up adventure playgrounds.

After being asked to host a series of kids activities as part of a local festival last summer, we came across Pop-up Adventure Play and adventure playgrounds. It was immediately clear that this was the way to go for us as educators in our community. At The Lion and The Mouse we strive to promote child-led play and learning in addition to forest school principles, so finding a vehicle to bring this out into the community in a fun way was perfect.

You can read the full post here. Thanks to Pop-up Adventure Play for having us!

Our next Pop-up is Monday February 29th from 1:30-3:30pm at the Marc-Favreau Library as part of the Montreal joue festival. Hope to see you there!
