Luma Littles: an outdoor, play-based class where littles and their grownups learn, connect, and grow together.

Bond Park, 117 Tuxedo Ct, Petaluma CA 94954, Petaluma, CA 94954

Luma Littles is a fun-filled early learning class that creates joyful experiences through play, connection, and exploration. Littles and their caregivers participate in a warm, thoughtfully designed environment where routines, music, literacy, movement, sensory play, and hands-on activities nurture development across all domains, including communication, motor development, cognitive and executive functioning, and social-emotional learning.

Each class follows a familiar rhythm that helps children know what to expect while leaving plenty of room for curiosity, creativity, and child-led exploration. This predictable structure supports engagement, confidence, and regulation, while new stories, songs, sensory experiences, movement activities, manipulatives, and weekly themes keep every session fresh, meaningful, and fun.

A typical Luma Littles class includes:

Her patient, kind, and lighthearted approach helps children and caregivers alike feel welcome, supported, and connected. While Luma Littles is not a therapy program, Josie's professional expertise thoughtfully guides and curates a high-quality enrichment program, creating joyful, developmentally rich experiences grounded in both evidence and genuine care.
