I am so proud of the work Lee and I have done to create our outdoor early education program! Our program is small, but we anticipate openings in our micro-school for next year, and now is the time to consider where your child will go to preschool next fall. Join us for our Open House on October 12, 2024 and learn all about the work we do and see our space. RSVP with your preschool child’s age to LittleSchoolhouseintheWoods@gmail.com

Little Schoolhouse in the Woods has a vision of early childhood education that is focused on the whole child: social/emotional, physical and academic. While we consider play based approaches to be the best way to learn, our informal academic approach is grounded in student led lessons. We do all of this based in nature and in a natural environment. Our eclectic pedagogical approach is inspired by hands on and open ended philosophies incorporating whatever works best for our current group of students.

Our two acre property neighbors Mt. Airy Forest with acres of hiking trails: we get outside and play a lot! We focus on the seasons and we experience Mother Nature in all kinds of weather. The kids have a blast and learn a lot while we do our best to gently guide them toward healthy relationships with their peers and each other.
