Class Under Glass
Studies prove that spending time outdoors builds confidence , promotes creativity , provides unique stimulation , and gets children moving , all while reducing stress and fatigue . Parents and children will learn about the outdoors and nature , both in and out of our greenhouse , through artwork and sensory experiences . Class will be spent inside and outdoors - even through the winter months .
Growing Up Social : Raising Children in a Screen Driven World
Since the COVID-19 pandemic began , children are spending more and more time on screens rather than playing outside , playing with others , or using their imaginations . Discuss ways to protect and nurture your child ’ s growing brain , how to establish simple boundaries that will make a difference , and ways to encourage connecting with people in today ’ s world .
