Experience the magic of nature in our StormHawks Nature Preschool: a place where children learn and grow surrounded by the beauty of the outdoors; the ultimate classroom for curious young minds. We invite children who are eager to learn through discovery and comfortable spending extended time outdoors to dive into hands-on learning through nature exploration. Through a natural environment, children will continue their personalized academic growth in multiple curriculum areas including social-emotional, cognitive, physical and creative development with a strong emphasis on pre-math and pre-literacy skills.

To fully participate, children must have prerequisite skills including full toilet training and the ability to remain attentive and stay with the group. Families receive a recommended list to ensure proper outdoor gear. The class includes field trips to Camp Fire Minnesota, with ongoing collaboration between their naturalist staff and our preschool teacher.
