First Day of Nature Preschool
September 3 @ 9:00 am - 3:30 pm
The Schuylkill Center’s Nature Preschool is a developmental, play-based school where children are immersed in nature. Our days are spent outside discovering, investigating, and learning about the world all around us. We are located on 365-acres of fields, forests, ponds, and streams in northwest Philadelphia, giving children a unique opportunity to explore and learn about their relationship to the natural world in a risk-managed environment. Children’s ideas, inquiries, and discoveries are nurtured and implemented with hands-on daily experiences. Through these experiences children acquire a deep intuitive understanding of nature and the natural world. Our children are given daily opportunities to use their imaginations, develop critical thinking skills, stretch their muscles, and hone their motor skills.
