Nature & Play Based Learning:
Where Children Go to Be Children.
The magic of imagination meets the wonders of NATURE!
Explore
We investigate the natural world around us, taking the time to discover, wonder, and learn.
Discover
Nature is always changing. Every time we go outside, there is something new to discover. It’s time to leave the trail most-traveled and make our own paths!
Play
During a nature exploration session, the children are encouraged to use their imaginations – to play and be themselves. Nature has a way of bringing out the child in all of us.
The lasting pleasures of contact with the natural world are not reserved for scientists but are available to anyone who will place himself under the influence of earth, sea, and sky, and their amazing life.

Huge mushroom! 
I do not know WHAT this odd plant was, but the seeds appeared to be the fuzzy eyeballs of some pink monster. L. tried telling me it was the fuzzy monster eyeball flower. 
Hello, frog! 
They held hands and stomped through the last bit of water before we had to go back.
