Providing Hands on, Play based Education to children 3-9 years

We are dedicated to the education of children 3-9 years in a play based/nature based program in Greater Greenville, South Carolina. We honor a child’s innate love and curiosity. We look for opportunities for children to engage, bond, build ideas and ask questions.

We are passionate about providing young children experience, exploration and connection to learning. We know that a child learns by using their senses and therefore we strive for engaged, hands on learning. We believe in open ended play, valuing a child’s work and meeting each child’s development where they are. We value all learners and believe that a child’s exceptionalities should be embraced. We believe in a child learning at their own pace, inspired and encouraged by peers and teachers.

We teach science, math, literature, geography and project classes using nature as our base. We give students an opportunity to grow their social emotional skills in a safe and encouraging environment. We believe that working and playing in nature fosters optimal brain development, an increased ability to learn and quiet mindfulness.

We work to engage with parents and caregivers to enhance confidence and competence in their inherent role as the people who ultimately foster a child’s education. We consider a family an equal partner in our endeavor. We work to inspire a lifelong love of learning, care for the environment and conservation of wild places.

We believe that immersion in nature will create future generations who continue to care about the natural world, use problem solving skills to make change and strive to create new paths that benefit all.
