Early Childhood Programs

Young children learn by being active participants. SM&NC early childhood programs inspire creativity, foster self-discovery, and nurture an appreciation for life-long learning. Our staff supports a child's sense of wonder and natural curiosity by providing hands-on experiences in our classrooms and outdoors in the natural world.

Walk on our beautiful woodland trails, and take in the wondrous colors of this season. See how our forest friends are getting ready for the cold weather. What are the squirrels going to do with all those acorns? Are the fish going to freeze in the pond?
