This outdoor/indoor, high-quality, early childhood program offers a curriculum that follows B.C.'s Early Learning Framework.
This program touches on all subjects and disciplines: math, social/emotional wellness, science, art, literature, physical education and more.
Children and nature go hand-in-hand, and when a child plays, learns and connects with nature, they do so by reaching out their hand and touching it.
Recent studies have shown children engaged in nature inspired learning benefit in the following ways:
• Increases positive environment attitudes later on in adult life.
• Provides kids with opportunities for self-reflection (for example, through ‘sit spots’) and connection.
• Increases spiritual well-being through a sense of connectedness, a sense of purpose, a sense of awe, wonder and inspiration.
• Encourages gratitude rituals which can enhance our resilience and ability to face challenges.
• A place to embrace risky play.
• Decreases the occurrence and frequency of time off for ill health.
Blossoms & Roots offers optional supplemental care.
We are open at 7:30 am - 5:30 pm.
Our afternoon program includes a healthy afternoon snack & participation in our Early Literacy Program.
