Branch and Bloom: A Northern Colorado Nature Themed Social Group for Kids & Their Grownups


Because growing together is better than going it alone.
Does your child have a big heart but struggle to connect with peers?
Do they light up outside but dim in classrooms or structured social groups?
Do you wish that you could talk with other parents about the unique challenges to raising these amazing kids?
Branch and Bloom is a weekly afterschool gathering for middle school-aged kids who are still learning how to navigate friendships, big feelings, and group dynamics—but thrive outside the classroom.
While children build confidence, flexibility, and connection through low-pressure outdoor activities, their parents gather nearby for support, tools, and real talk.
This group is designed to support both kids and their grownups—offering a unique opportunity to grow stronger, together.
🌿 What to Expect:
-
Nature-based social activities that foster connection and emotional regulation
-
A trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming environment
-
Gentle structure without pressure to perform or “fit in”
-
A parallel parent group for support, reflection, and community
-
Led by experienced educators, coaches, and parents who get it
