Open Play
At Little Learners Outdoors we offer a wonderful opportunity for children to explore their creativity and learn through play. During this play session, you will accompany your Little Learners in an outdoor classroom and enjoy several learning opportunities. Free play in our mud kitchen or sand kitchen, explore the art station, create in the building zone, or take a guided hike.
Play stations are designed specifically to foster a child's growth and development. Open Play sessions offer a myriad of benefits. Through engaging in hands-on activities like painting, children enhance their fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and cognitive abilities. They also have the opportunity to express their emotions, develop their imagination, and improve their problem-solving skills – all while having an absolute blast!
Please book a spot for each learner (ages 18 months -10). Siblings younger than 18 months or older than 10 are welcome to tag along (free). Please fill out a waiver for each learner before your play session. When spots are available, electronic payment or cash is accepted on arrival, exact change only.

Nature Connection
Sessions led by Lilia Kapsali-Grant
These gentle, grounding sessions are designed to help you reconnect with the natural world—and with yourself. Over 90 peaceful minutes, we move through a rhythm of guided meditation, sit spot time, and sensory or artistic exercises, all designed to deepen awareness and invite reflection.
Each practice has been carefully chosen from a blend of Western evidence-based methods and timeless traditions passed down through spiritual lineages. The session's flow supports quiet presence, creativity, and optional group sharing, all held in a nurturing outdoor space.
Offerings
Whether you're looking to slow down, spark your senses, or simply be with nature in a more intentional way, these sessions offer a safe, welcoming space to do just that.
Open to ages 16 and up, these sessions are ideal for anyone seeking stillness, inspiration, or meaningful time outdoors in good company.
Fall Sessions TBA

Nature Dance Classes
In this joyful outdoor dance class, children will explore the wonders of nature through creative movement, playful expression, and physical grounding. Each class is inspired by the natural world - from fluttering like butterflies and swaying like tall trees, to stomping like forest creatures and flowing like rivers. With guidance from a skilled dance teacher trained in ballet, modern dance, improvisation, and holistic practices, children are encouraged to move freely, connect with the environment, and express themselves with curiosity and confidence.

Weather Policy
When it rains, we will have class. When it is cold, we will have class. When it is hot, we will have class and water and shade.
We strive for the children to experience all types of weather, in order to embrace the values of a forest school. However, to preserve the safety of children and staff, we will carefully assess the weather forecasts and close if conditions warrant such actions. It is at the discretion of the Little Learners to make the decision to dismiss early, open late, or close. In the event of delays or cancellations. In the event of a weather cancellation, you will be credited for a future session. We do have an indoor play space available, so the chances of cancellation are very slim.
