MORNING
2.5-4 years old
Our AM classes begin and end at Little Garden. Students are invited to engage with pretend play, sensory experiences, and a variety of fine motor activities. We go on daily walks around the neighborhood and into Carkeek Park where we enjoy storytime, songs, and nature exploration followed by a snack in the garden and time to dig, run, climb, and reflect.
AFTERNOON
3.5-5 years old
Our PM classes begin in Carkeek Park: exploring trails, Pipers Creek, the apple orchard, and the beach. For the second half of our class, we uncover the joys of working and playing in the garden. We weave in topical themes using music, art, science, reading, journaling, and yoga.
What our Families are Saying:
"We feel so fortunate to have found Little Garden Learning for our children! Eileen and her staff have created a true wonderland of outdoor spaces and interactive, enriching activities. Our kids love the sense of community and always look forward to going to 'Miss Ween's house.' Our children benefitted from the staff's deep knowledge of child development and early learning. In particular - the staff were able to support our children's unique developmental needs and collaborate with outside providers when needed"
