Open the world to a child.
With a few tools and the right environment, a child will naturally want to explore.  Along the way, they will develop respect for the earth, others, and themselves. 
Lake Katherine has a variety of subjects for grown-ups and pre-school age children to discover together, as well as many after-school programs.
