What is Tinkergarten?

Designed and led by experts, loved by parents and kids, Tinkergarten gets kids ages 1 1/2 to 6 learning outside. Children who participate in the Tinkergarten program get the physical and mental benefits of increased time outdoors and build a lasting connection to nature. Our classes include songs, movement, stories, and irresistible invitations for open-ended play!  
The Tinkergarten Nature Play program is led by Jenna Kyes, a longtime educator and mom of four.  Jenna has years of experience teaching Tinkergarten, and she loves sharing the joy and wonder of playful outdoor learning with children and their caregivers.

This spring in our Tinkergarten classes, we will focus on EMPATHY, the special human superpower that we use to understand our emotions and see the world through other people's eyes. Come learn and explore outdoors with us as we support kids in developing emotional, cognitive and compassionate empathy through purposeful play experiences.
