Nature Stay and Play
Share in the wonder of nature as we learn and play together in our shaded forest play area. We’re following a Tinkergarten curriculum, an outdoor play-based curriculum that incorporates a combination of physical, mental and emotional health.
Each season, we help children to develop one of our 8 core skills they'll need to become curious, capable learners who can contribute to their world.
This Summer, we focus on kids' sensory development. Our senses are central to how we experience the world, how we behave, and how we learn.
We'll help each child strengthen and balance their senses, and we’ll do it all through enriching, outdoor play!
The core lessons follow a steady progression and are organized into three units:
In our Famous Five unit (lessons 1-3), we’ll activate the senses of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch (June 14, 21, 28)
In our Hidden Senses unit (lessons 4-6), we’ll focus on integrating multiple senses at once and introduce two hidden senses that, though less known, have a major impact on how kids feel and learn—the vestibular system and proprioception. (July 5, 12, 19)
In our final Sense of Joy and Wonder unit (lessons 7-9), three very special lessons designed to help us explore the senses we love most at Tinkergarten! (July 26, August 2 and 9)
This program is for children 1.5-8 years old and meets in Orlando, FL. This is not a drop-off program. Caregivers must stay with their child. We encourage caregiver participation in the program.
