Unstructured play is everything.

We aim to allow children autonomy over the content, timing, and movement of their projects and exploration.

We believe in encouraging, valuing, and promoting children's interests and instincts through supported, unstructured play rather than through a predetermined set of activities. We trust the learning instincts of our children, that the things they are driven to experience are developmentally important. We allow children to be the leaders of their own learning and encourage the growth of their creativity and individuality. Children are made to play, it's how they best interact with and learn from the world. We  use the foundation of secure attachment to foster a nurturing space wherein trust begets play and play begets learning.
