Join us for Summer Adventures, an interactive outdoor learning class for toddlers based in our beautiful , private, backyard garden. Using the universal language of art, music, movement, play, and imagination; Adventurers will explore and create stories together following unique weekly themes.

This program is led by our teaching artists Leslie and Brenna, and aims to nurture students’ curiosities while deepening their singing, communication, listening, creative expression, turn-taking, and fine and gross motors skills. Each day class ends with a snack and water play in our garden. In fact, weather permitting, all activities will take place outdoors! This class is appropriate for children ages 3-5, but all children must be potty-trained to attend. See below for more details.

This is a drop-off program led by teachers with experience supporting children and families with separation. Our teachers create a nurturing and safe environment for taking safe risks and approach children with a gentle child-led approach.  We aim to be an inclusive program and make space to check in with families about the particular needs, learning styles, and strengths of their children.
