Welcome to Colorado Nature School Preschool

Pods of 4

Learning Guides

Our Curriculum

We build pods of 4 children, each joined by one of our Learning Guides. Our small groups enable your child to work on their social skills and relationship building through play with just a few kids, rather than 10 or 20.

Children follow their individual interests providing an emergent curriculum.  Through self-directed activities, children develop their social, emotional, cognitive, and physical skills through their interactions with nature and each other.
