Wild Nook Preschool
Wild Sprouts (3s) & Wild Buds (4s)
Nature-based, outdoor learning for children ages 3–5
​
Wild Nook Preschool is a nature-based, play-driven program for children ages 3–5. Our days are calm, relational, and primarily outdoors, where children explore, imagine, and build confidence at their own pace. Faith-informed values like kindness, gratitude, and care for creation are woven gently into daily life, while our primary focus remains on social-emotional growth, curiosity, and connection.

Once a week, children of all ages gather for an immersive outdoor experience that sparks curiosity and creativity and is guided by seasonal themes. Whether making stone soup, going on a bear hike, making mud pies, or engaging in open-ended exploration, children will develop confidence, resilience, and a deep appreciation for the natural world. These experiences also support executive function skills like problem-solving, adaptability, collaboration, and self-regulation—essential foundations for future learning and growth.
