Hey Kids! We look forward to meeting you, too!!
Are you looking for Pagan festival experience the whole family can enjoy? Are you looking for activities that build on our shared Pagan values that can be enjoyed by four year olds and ten year olds? Are you looking for a way to interact with the larger Pagan community and make some new friends? You’ve come to the right place!
Untamed has all of that and more!! We invite you and your children to join us on a weekend adventure of self discovery, creativity and exploration of the Colorado mountains through a Pagan lens. The kids at Untamed are being called the Hatchlings, Sprouts and Cubs. At Untamed you will see a canopy marked HSC– that’s the starting point for most Hatchling, Sprouts and Cubs’ activities.
We will gather for RISE in the morning. Here we center ourselves and set our intentions for the day.
After lunch we EXPLORE the grounds and learn from the land. We listen to the birds, we feel the wind at our backs, we run around and probably hug a tree.
At CREATE we get to expand our creativity and minds by making a magical tool to bring home to use!
GATHER is our nighttime ritual of coming together to cozy up around a fire for stories, songs and meaningful discussion!!
We look forward to seeing you at Untamed. We plan to get wild and discover new things about ourselves and create magic throughout the festival grounds.
Parents, please accompany your kids to discover something new as you are able. It is important that we have a good ratio of kids to adults for safety and to ensure that everyone enjoys the activity. And who knows, you might learn a little about yourself too.
***Clothing is required at all Kids events and Kids areas***
If you have questions or want to volunteer in support of our littlest Pagans, please email untamedfest@gmail.com
