Acorn Tree Child Garden is a nurturing, home preschool offering a child-centered wholistic learning environment. We recognize and honor young children's natural drive to observe, explore, experiment, and gain understanding of their world through play. Each day offers a mindful balance of imaginative play, practical life activities, gardening and interaction with nature, art and handcrafts, storytelling, and Circle time verses, songs and games. These activities not only bring joy to the day, but also help children develop in their communication and social skills, strengthen their fine and gross motor coordination, and teach them practical skills of daily living. A sense of wonder, reverence, respect, and stewardship toward the Earth is a fundamental part of Acorn Tree's ethos. Children spend a good portion of their day outside in all seasons. Acorn Tree's joyful day of rich and meaningful activity nurtures children's development inall domains, preparing them to meet the world with curiosity, wonder, empathy, resilience and love.
