This program is built for early walkers and their families to come build community and engage in the natural environment together.
New!
Wild Ones
This is the youngest age program we offer. It's a great way to normalize outdoor education from a young age--and a great way to meet other families.
Ages 10mo-2yrs, Wednesdays & Saturdays 9-10a
Wildlings
Our parent-child class that operates in nearly the same age group as our Forest Preschool. Test out our approach before committing to our pre-k or use this as a weekend supplement program for the whole family.
Ages 2-4, Wednesdays & Saturdays 10:30a-12p
Our Flex Pass options allow you to sign up for five visits at your own leisure, removing you from the confines of a weekly schedule. Flex Pass options roll over one season, so a Spring Pass would also be usable in the Fall season.
Locations
Marsh Sanctuary is one of our most dynamic and accessible locations. It has it all--a bustling pond, hillbound forests, and wide open fields for play and games. It's an absolute treat to offer a majority of our seasonal and event programming there.
B Road, Marsh Sanctuary, Mt Kisco
Croton Point Park is the ideal space to experience the beauty of the Hudson River and the accessibility of a state park. It's a favored space for our Wildlings, Wild Ones, WHG, Nature Club and Wild Summer.
Croton Point Park, Croton on Hudson
There's no such thing as too young to find joy in the natural environment. We firmly believe that every child should spend time in the forests, fields, and riverbeds that surround them during the formative years of their development. Our program focuses on tactile play, cause and effect, and natural games and activities that bring families together and get kids excited to spend time outdoors.
This program is designed for kids age 1-3, but families with older children are welcome to bring them along.
We are committed to providing safe, inclusive outdoor programs. Learn about our policies here!
The Lessons the Forest Can Teach Us
In a world of ever-increasing speed and inconsistency, our kids deserve access to nature and a focus on sustainable education. The best way to teach a young mind is to instill wonder and play into every lesson, and the best place for that is in a open-air classroom.
