A great way for kids to get out and enjoy the great outdoors is through gardening. At Laurel Oak, our goal is to help introduce kids to the joy of the outdoors. We strive to provide a kid-friendly shopping experience, as well as quality programs for children.
Wee Wednesdays are gardening related classes for preschoolers and kindergartners. Wee Wednesday classes are held from 9:30am to 10:30am, March through December.
All classes include a hands-on activity, a story, and a snack. An $8 class fee covers supplies and snack. Additional siblings are $4 each. Please plan to stay with your child. To enroll your child or grandchild in these fun-filled classes, please call us at (856) 596-7779 today. Classes fill quickly.
