We always get asked, what about winter?
To which we respond, what about it?

Winter isn’t a time to shy away from being outdoors. We still need the vitamin D from the sun, we crave the fresh air and we live for those first flakes that promise snow!

Our kiddos spend their time:
creating snow forts
Sledding
strengthening their core muscles while walking on slippery ice
Building snow men
Getting heavy work in shoveling, moving and hauling snow
Learning to regulate their bodies and advocate if they are too hot or too cold
Exploring
Discovering
Getting tactile input
And playing!
