Fall and Spring 2025 - 2026 classes coming soon!
With a mix of environmental exploration and self-directed play, this drop-off class gently introduces toddlers to learning as a group through independent exploration, social play, nature immersion, and lightly structured activities such as process art, story time, and group snack. Through outdoor play they will learn to negotiate and cooperate with peers, expand their gross and fine motor skills, and build the foundations for early literacy.
​
Classes are for walkers up to young 4s. Older and younger toddlers will take part in a mixed age group--stretching their abilities and honing their leadership skills. Each class is limited to five students and takes place all outdoors in Sunset Park, under the facilitation of a lead playworker with an assistant.

* two-and-a-half hours of drop-off, outdoor play and hands-on nature education
* micro class size with a 1: 2.5 ratio
