TimberNook: Outdoor Learning
Twice a month, our preschoolers head outside for theme-based, imagination-led play on our state of the art playground.
Time and space to play deeply
Blossom Station offers an enrichment program for our preschool children centered on outdoor experiences. Twice a month, TimberNook staff bring theme-based activities that give children sensory, motor, and social experiences on our playground.
These activities encourage children to use their imagination and critical thinking, and to negotiate materials with their classmates, expanding their play in new and unique ways. Staff step back to empower age-appropriate risk-taking and deep, process-oriented learning.
