Nature Preschool combines indoor and outdoor learning in a hands-on, engaging approach that encourages active investigation, exploration, and interaction with the natural world. We teach children about relationships we have with our environment and the things that live in it. We learn about our food systems by growing our own plants, caring for them, harvesting them, and cooking them. We learn about the creatures in our backyard by creating habitats with our children for birds, pollinators, and small animals that supports their needs for water, food, and shelter. We use natural materials to create and build in our classrooms. We hunt for bugs, we make mud pies, splash in puddles after it rains, and catch snowflakes on our tongues in the winter. Rain or shine, hot or cold, our kids spend at least an hour in the morning and afternoon outside. We observe the life cycles of butterflies, tadpoles, and other creatures as we are able to and ten release them back into the wild. We explore with our families in natural areas in the Ozarks on field trips and outings to encourage families to connect to nature.
