From June 1-9th, 2025 ICAN is encouraging groups across the state to make a special effort to get kids outside by holding a Nature Play Day event. These events can be anything from broad partnership, multi-day community events to a simple guided hike, loose parts play, or a meet-up at a playground. Large or small, free play or department led, the goal of Nature Play Days is to get kids outside and remind families that nature play is important and can happen close to home.
Join us by setting up your own Nature Play Day and encouraging others in your community to do the same. Check out the blog post from Muncie BY5 and find out how they expanded the network! Get ICAN's assistance, ideas and materials for a successful event.
