The Wild Exchange has been serving the community here on the Sunshine Coast for 4 years now, providing over 500 families with play-based Ecotherapy for children.
We create activities and experiences that spark joy, curiosity, and foster a reciprocal and loving relationship with Mother Earth. We support the social-emotional development of the child, in a playful and engaging way. That's our bread and butter!
For years we've received messages from families around the country asking how they can access what we offer in their local community.
With the launch of 'Nature Mail', The Wild Exchange experience can be sent to your doorstep every month!
We don't love to toot our own horn, but it's okay if someone does it for you, right?
Here's what our community have to say about The Wild Exchange experience:
"As a Primary Teacher, I appreciate the thoughtful care that has been taken to create meaningful connection to nature. From the lessons of mindfulness to seasonal themes, these activities are helping to shape my son's choices in life to be present and considerate. I’m forever grateful for the time it saves me to spend quality time whilst grounding us together in nature."
Nat, Mum of 3yr old Cali
"Watching my little ones hands explore their nature play experiences has been one of the most fulfilling parts of parenthood so far. Knowing that they are learning about nature, honouring the seasons of the world and also their own, and learning how to connect and care for animals, bugs, trees and everything in between is the best foundation for their lifelong learning I could have hoped for. "
Kat, Mum of 5yr old Olive
"Earth friendly, child centred and beautifully created activities that have left long lasting memories and joy in our hearts.Having the privilege for my kids (and myself) to take part in these authentically considered activities at The Wild Exchange has truly been a highlight of their childhood."
Alex, Mum of 4yr old Lily
"When it comes to supporting my kids play and exploration, my creativity is non-existent. It has been a blessing to find The Wild Exchange and be able to give my children the tools to play, use their hands, be mindful and thrive in nature with activities that can be explored in a multitude of ways that have been thoughtfully curated to expand their hearts and their minds."
Tobi, Dad of 3yr old Hem
For the price of a loaf of bread (the organic, rested for a whole day, sourdough kind), you can have an entire morning of meaningful, expansive, JOYFUL play with your little one and feel like an absolute star parent in the process.
Nature Mail makes raising Earth conscious little leaders feel effortless.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
What's inside a Nature Mail box?
Each month a new box is released with a nature inspired theme. Inside every box you'll find:
-
Four nature play activities with an instruction card and all the key resources you’ll need (sometimes you will need to go forage for some leaves, bark or dirt!)
-
One packet of Earth friendly, spray free seeds to plant in the garden
-
One children’s meditation script to support healthy nervous systems
What is the intention of the activities?
All nature play activities inside your box are designed to support your child’s social and emotional development, while fostering a wondrous and loving relationship with Mother Nature.
Who is Nature Mail suitable for?
Nature Mail is most suitable for children aged 3-9yrs, and occasionally includes some small parts such as dried chamomile or gum nuts. Depending on the age and personality of your child, activities can be enjoyed together with a parent/educator, with siblings, or alone.
Are the contents Earth friendly?
Integrity is our number 1 value as a business, which means we can't guide children on how to love and care for Mother Nature without loving and caring for Her ourselves. All resources enclosed have been sourced with the health of the planet at the forefront. We make most of the box contents ourselves, or source locally wherever possible. We strive to be 100% plastic free in our resourcing (however this can at times be near impossible sadly!). All of our packaging is either compostable, recycled/recyclable or better yet, reusable! We use acid-free, soy-based inks for printing on recycled paper!
Can I just purchase one box?
You can cancel your subscription after just one box, but you won't want to! When signing up on a monthly subscription with Nature Mail, you are entering into a subscription agreement which means you will be automatically charged every month unless you cancel or pause your subscription at least 24hrs prior to your renewal date. That being said, you can cancel anytime with ease! We will soon be adding a store that you can purchase one off boxes through.
When will our Nature Mail arrive?
After subscribing, your order will be dispatched on the following Monday or Thursday excluding public holidays. You should have it within 7-10 days of your billing date! We all remember the excitement of receiving mail as a kid, but with so many things online these days, our children rarely (if ever) get to experience that joy! Give the gift of joy-filled memories AND a month’s worth of fun and engaging nature play activities with a Nature Mail subscription.
