It’s fun to plan warmer days when it’s so cold out! You can start book spring, summer, and fall outdoor parties now! We also have pool parties available June-September. This reel is an example of what an outdoor party under the big white tent is like! Princesses and foam party are extra, but always available! #birthdayparties #partiesma #babyshowers #familyreunions
Outside every day.
Learning by doing.
Mud on boots. Questions in the air.
Nature Explorers is our drop off program for ages 3 to 5 where curiosity leads the way. We explore, build, create, observe, and problem solve in the real world. When weather turns extreme, we head indoors for hands on stations so children can reset and keep the learning going.
Snack packed. Lunch packed. Confidence growing.
Tuesday through Thursday.
Space available today.
Want to see if nature based drop off is right for your 3 to 5 year old? Join Ms. Courtney for Monday and Friday playgroups and experience it in action.
