Experiences for Kids

At Elements we pride ourselves on our unique, authentic, enriching offerings for your kids with an amazing Crew and Mama Nature as our Boss Lady.

2025 update

Since 2007, Elements has helped more than 4000 kiddos get outside and in their element. What started as a seed of an idea, and a small group consisting of my 4 kids and their friends turned into a 3 season, fun-filled, full-time passion project. I have loved every minute of adventuring with the Elements kiddos and Crew in the glorious woods of Washington DC!

At the finale of our 2024 Winter season, I decided to take a sabbatical which allowed me to gain a different perspective, grow and learn. I joined the team at Run. Wild Retreats, leading women on running. and wellness trips around the world. With this change my focus shifted and I am now hoping to pass the reins of Elements along to a new leader with a comparable passion of helping kids adventure outdoors.
