About

The program also includes experiences called Snail Forest, fairy balls, and solstice ceremonies.
• Ages: 3–8 years old
All Friends Nature School is an outdoor recreation program that uses natural areas for children to explore and grow. Established in 2007, All Friends Nature School has offered nature classes for ages 3–8 years old since that time. The program’s mission is to foster the development of the whole child – physical, cognitive, emotional and social – through the use of a play, place, experiential and emergent curriculum. The program states that children learn best through whole body sensory experiences and uses hands-on experiential play-based learning to give children a deeper connection and experience with nature. It focuses on fostering development of self-regulation, self-direction, and self-reflection, and it values the relationship between parents, teachers, and community. The program offers outdoor learning regardless of weather.
Teaching staff at All Friends Nature School include Susan, also referred to as Miss Susan, as a teacher. Since 2007, All Friends Nature School has involved children and families in forming nature connections and building community.
Parent testimonials describe All Friends Nature School as including a set routine with circle time and lunch, and mention exploring different locations including the woods and beach. Families mention activities such as forest school, Snail Forest, fairy balls, and solstice ceremonies, and describe Miss Susan welcoming children with a smile and warm heart. Multiple parents refer to their children attending for several years, including preschool and kindergarten years, and describe their children coming home dirty and happy, with many stories from their days outdoors.
