Ages for which our activities are most appropriate: 
Come play and learn outside this winter for kids 18 months to 8 years! Each play lesson will invite kids to wonder, observe, experiment, and work together—all along establishing lasting problem-solver mindsets and unlocking kids’ capacity to work well with others. Plus, we’ll enjoy warm Tinkergarten tea, witness the magic that winter has to offer, and help kids learn how fun it can be to play outdoors all four seasons!

Tinkergarten's Approach
For nearly a decade, we’ve honed our approach to helping kids become healthy, curious, capable learners.
  • Nature at the core. Outdoors is the classroom. Creatures are our teachers. Mud and sticks are our tools, and every lesson deepens kids’ connection to nature.
  • Irresistible invitations to play. Each lesson is engineered as an invitation to play that kids simply can’t refuse!
  • Open-ended, child-led. Kids learn best when they lead the way. Plus, we help grown-ups support their child’s unique process.
  • Part science, part wisdom. Every lesson combines early learning science with timeless wisdom about nature and childhood. It’s a magic combination.
