Spring Session


Enrollment for the spring session will open in January. Details coming soon.

Our 2026 spring semester program will be held in Summit Park. Our program is available for children 3 – 6 years old, who are potty-independent and comfortable being outdoors. Our program runs from 8:15-11:50, Monday-Friday. Schedule options include: 2, 3, 4, or 5 days a week. The spring semester will run from March-June. Exact dates coming soon.

This program is great for families who ski or travel in the winter, or for children who didn’t make the age cut off at the start of the school year (August 2025).

We are are emergent program, which means that we base our projects and lessons on the arising interests of the children, as well as the changes in the seasons and in nature. In addition to our daily circle time, which consists of: good morning songs, calendar, weather, and story time, we will also be bringing in art, music, and prompts based on their current interests. This is in addition to the free play that is scheduled every day. Free play is a very important time for children to learn how to take healthy risks, explore, socialize and use their imaginations. We believe this is the most important part of their day.

 

"Children learn as they play. Most importantly, in play children learn how to learn." -Fred Donaldson

learn and explore in Nature

Time in nature is not leisure time; it’s an essentail investment in our children’s health (and also, by the way, in our own).
