You have scrolled your way to a place where muddy boots are celebrated, curiosity is encouraged, and space is boundless. Where the forest, meadows and creeks are our greatest teachers.

 

Wild Child Nature Project is a Forest and Nature School rooted in a deep love for nature, for children, and for the beautiful community that is growing with us as we gather with intention.​

​

What is Forest and Nature School you wonder?

Forest and Nature School is learning that happens outdoors, in all seasons, where the forest becomes the classroom. Children are free to explore, play, and follow their natural curiosity—whether that means building, digging, wondering, or simply noticing. We return to the same outdoor spaces again and again, helping children feel safe, confident, and connected to the land. Caring educators are always nearby, guiding, supporting, and keeping learning meaningful and safe.

​

Why it works...

It works because nature meets children where they are. Outdoor, nature play supports movement, imagination, confidence, and calm, while giving children the space and time they need to truly engage in learning. Children (and adults) learn best when they feel safe, curious, and connected, and nature naturally supports all three.

 

What does a day look like?

We spend our days exploring forests, tending gardens, watching seasons change, and following curiosity wherever it leads us. Sometimes that looks like building shelters, sometimes it’s planting seeds, and sometimes it’s simply sitting quietly and listening to the wind and birds in the trees.  Our days are co-created each morning with the children, when we gather for a morning snack and story. They unfold differently each day, and follow the hearts and passion of the group. We believe that learning happens best on the land through curiosity, questions and wonder, and that through repeated time and experiences in the same outdoor spaces, children build confidence, resilience, and a lasting relationship with nature. We are fostering tomorrow's stewards of land.

​

​

We offer programs for all ages, because connection to nature is lifelong and everyone belongs here. Whether you’re just beginning your journey or returning to the forest as an old friend, there is space for you in our circle.
