Summer Stay + Play
Ages 18 months- 5 years
Stay+ Play, our parent and child class, will take a wild adventure this summer with four themed weeks of imagination and play in nature. Classes meet from 9-11am Central.
In addition to activities involving the weekly theme, there will be storytelling, a craft, and unstructured time to explore and play. A parent or caregiver must stay with their child to help support and guide.

Discover a world of dinosaurs at Little Garden School! This week is all about fun dino themed sensory experiences, crafting clay dino prints, story, and uncovering hidden dinosaurs in our nature playscape.
June 10th or 11th: Faraway Castles
Travel to a world far far away full of castles, princesses, knights, and even a fire breathing baby dragon. Enter the world of castles through small world play, crafting crowns, story, and a dragon hunt for the bravest knights and princesses.
June 17th or 18th: Adventure Pirates
Ahoy matey! Hop on the boat for a fun pirate adventure where we walk the plank, craft our own mini-boats, share a pirate story, and hunt for treasure.
June 24th or 25th: Enchanted Gardens
Enter an enchanted world of fairies and gnomes amongst the summer garden. A whimsical end to our summer session where we craft a mini world fit for a gnome or fairy, share an enchanting story, and look for the hidden garden gnomes.
