- This summer's theme is Focus! A vital part of early development kids will hone in this skill learning through each other and favorite animal friends as wonderful examples.
Tinkergarten's goal is to get families outside playing. We know that kids learn best outside and when learning is joyful, so why not combine the two? Tinkergarten guides families through purposeful outdoor play. Each week your child will get a new irresistible prompt to discover and explore, and be prepared, they'll be wanting to recreate them at home too! Seasons are themed around one of eight important themes for childhood development. Fostering creativity, instilling persistence, practicing communication, and nurturing empathy are just some of the ways we aim to lay the foundation for kids to be not only ready for school, but just about anything!
Come learn and play outside this fall as we unlock the magic of the great outdoors. You'll probably get messy, but that's all part of the process!
