2025-2026 Programs
Nature Stay and Play
Our Nature Stay & Play program brings learning to life outdoors using the Tinkergarten curriculum. Designed for children ages 1.5–8, each session offers hands-on, play-based experiences that spark curiosity, creativity, and joy in the natural world.
As children grow through the program, they build a strong foundation in eight essential life skills—skills that help them become creative thinkers, caring community members, and confident problem-solvers ready to thrive in a dynamic world.
Through meaningful time outside, children enjoy the physical and mental benefits of outdoor play while developing resilience, independence, and a lifelong connection to nature.
Join us for fresh air, discovery, and unforgettable moments together. 🌿
✨ Now offering classes on multiple days and two locations to fit your family’s schedule—making it easier than ever to join the adventure!

Upcoming Classes
Creativity in Winter Springs
This Spring, we focus on creativity- the ability to imagine original ideas or solutions to problems and make them happen. We’ll help kids develop creative mindsets and strategies that they can use throughout their lives to invent new things, solve problems, express their ideas and feelings, and to nurture relationships. And, we’ll do it all through enriching, outdoor play!
Our lessons follow a steady progression and are organized into three units.
In our Building Blocks unit, we focus on the Three B’s – the three core processes that we use when we are creative.
In our Creative Thinking unit, we use pretending to explore divergent thinking and discover many possible solutions to problems.
In our final Creative Expression unit, we explore how we can express ideas and feeling through art, music, and movement.
