Our Little Tykes Family Nature programs are offered Fall and Spring. They are designed for children 2-6 years old, but kids of all ages (and adults) have benefitted from the classes.

Spring 2026 Schedule

Classes are primarily held on 1st and 3rd Tuesdays, 2nd and 4th Wednesdays, and 2nd and 4th Mondays, from 10-11:30am, with a few exceptions to accommodate holidays.

Please note: there are no classes 3/2-3/6 or 3/30-4/3

Please note our Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday programs repeat material, so there are only two new classes per month, and most families just sign up for two days per month.

New Little Tykes Pricing for 2026: $100 per child for all seven spring classes, or $20 per class. Partial scholarships are available for families with financial need.

This year’s pricing increase reflects the staff time and care invested in creating a high-quality Little Tykes program. If the cost is a hardship for your family, please reach out—we’re happy to discuss scholarship options.

This is not a drop off program – please plan to have a parent or guardian stay with your child. Adults enjoy our program too!
