FAQ
1) What does "child-centered" approach mean?
​
A child-centered approach places each child's individual needs, capabilities, and interests at the center of all learning and activities.
​
2) Are you outside all day in every season?
​
We sure are...mostly! We do make use of our cozy tent to dry off, warm up, and take breaks in on cold or rainy days. We encourage you to dress/pack clothes for your child for the day's weather. Have a look through our Winter Gallery to see cold days in action!
​
3) What do I pack for my child?
​
-
A full change of clothes + wet bag (a large plastic bag works) - we get messy!
-
A water bottle (even two on hot days), snacks and a lunch if they are full day. We've noticed children tend to eat more when playing hard in nature, so packing a few extra snacks is a good idea!
-
Extra gear for colder/rainy days (socks, mittens, hats, rain/snow suits, etc)
