We have updated our program to include much more time hiking & exploring in parks.  Most importantly, we want to remain mindful of physical, emotional, social, & cognitive needs & skills of PreK kiddos, remaining outdoors in all weather.  We want to nurture each child's adjustments, in our group dynamic, so children don't become overwhelmed.  We have found that 3 hours is a perfect limit, & we have adjusted our program to that time frame
