I am sharing one of my favorite fall topics to explore with preschool-aged children. I honestly can’t think of a tastier and more engaging unit than apples in the fall!

Bird Study
As the snow melted away here in Ohio, we flew into a new study: BIRDS. Our friends were so excited to take flight and discover new things about these fascinating winged creatures.

Yoga in the WILD
Have you ever noticed the smell of grass in the springtime, the taste of a raindrop on your tongue, the sound of a squirrel scurrying up a tree, the feel of the wind on your skin, or the sight of the clouds changing shapes? The children call this a “Mindful Minute” and we learn to use all five of our senses when we take a moment to stop and notice.

Parent Reviews

I like to think of WILD Child Nature Preschool as a hidden gem that I get to share with others! In a world full of strenuous letter learning and testing for even the youngest learners everyone here makes it fun, engaging, and meaningful. The activities are spot on enjoyment for little explorers. I would highly recommend WILD Child Nature Preschool to anyone with young children. All explorers welcome!
