Spring 2025 Program
Spring at Forest and Garden School
Spring is a season of growth and discovery. As snow melts, flowers emerge, and tree buds expand, children have the opportunity to engage with the natural world through hands-on exploration and nature-based activities.
Our outdoor program supports:
Physical Development: Gross and fine motor skills through forest play and seasonal activities
Cognitive Growth: Observation, problem-solving, and creative exploration
Social-Emotional Learning: Confidence, cooperation, and independence through peer interaction
Children witness and participate in the rapid changes of the season, fostering curiosity, environmental awareness, and a deeper connection to nature. Spring provides the perfect context for experiential learning and developing a lifelong appreciation for the outdoors.
