TWIGS & PINES
FOREST SCHOOL
Where nature is the classroom and adventure is the lesson
Because every child deserves to feel the magic of the wild.
Twigs & Pines Forest School serves children from 3-7 years old.
Building confidence one muddy adventure at a time.
The Daily Benefits
Outdoor learning offers kids an incredible opportunity to thrive through adventure and imagination. In the open air, children embark on real explorations—climbing logs, splashing in streams, and discovering hidden nooks—that spark curiosity and build resilience far beyond what a traditional classroom can provide.
The Lifelong Benefits
Free from rigid structures, their imaginations soar as they turn sticks into swords, leaves into currency, or fallen branches into cozy forts, fostering creative problem-solving and storytelling. This hands-on, nature-immersed play not only boosts physical health and focus but also cultivates a deep sense of wonder, confidence, and connection to the world around them.
Program Overview
Our program consists of weekly/monthly themes and activities, so your child has something new to anticipate with each week.
Our nature-based school education plan focuses on experiential learning, where children engage with the natural world to develop skills, knowledge, and emotional growth.
What our parents are saying:
“We struggled to find a preschool situation for my high energy daughter until we met Ms. Kelley at Twigs and Pines. She loves being outside and has grown so much from being with Ms. Kelley and Ms. Kristina + socializing with other kiddos. We always feel confident that she’s safe and in good hands! We can’t wait to send her again for the 26-27 school year.”
— KB, current family“Secure, safe, outdoor learning environment where children can embrace their own learning speed amongst nature. My children stayed busy and enjoyed every day of Twigs and Pines Forest Preschool’s summer camp.”
— LT, summer camp “My 3 yr old daughter absolutely loves Mrs. Kelley and Mrs. Kristina! She is always asking if it is time for school and she never wants to leave. Everyday she comes home telling me all about her day with excitement. I am so very grateful that we found this preschool that allows kids to explore nature, that teachers them in a fun way, and a preschool with the sweetest teachers that show their heart everyday.”
