🎯 What Children Will Gain Through This Program

1. Learning in their own way, starting with “Why?”

Children begin by wondering about something, then explore it by trying things out,
researching, and expressing what they discover in their own way.
They grow their ability to think, explore, and share.

2. A gentle awareness of nature and life

From trees and whales to poop and fallen leaves,
children experience the wonder of life’s cycles through picture books and activities.
They begin to ask, “What does it mean for life to be connected?”

3. The joy of learning together

In mixed-age groups, children spend three days learning, exploring, and sharing.
They discover how fun it can be to express their ideas—and to hear others’ thoughts, too.

 

🌼 Age-Appropriate Approaches

We tailor the experience to fit each child’s age and interests,
so everyone can enjoy learning at their own pace.

▶︎ For younger students
They explore by seeing, touching, and doing—sparking curiosity and joy through hands-on discovery.

▶︎ For older students
They grow by expressing their ideas in words and deepening their understanding through discussion.
