Children are seen as capable contributors and are invited to participate in our learning community in many ways. Calm indoor and outdoor environments encourage independence, practical learning, and collaboration.
With a small class-size of 6, children are able to engage in extensive projects, receive individualized support, and form deep connections.
Includes a nutritious snack.
Intentionally small, for big ideas.

Our fully outdoor studio offers time and space for children to think with their hands. Children are invited to build, create, and experiment in a sensory-rich garden atmosphere.
Begins conveniently after SLO Coastal District TK Dismissal, just steps away from Pacheco Elementary.
With just 8 children, the studio remains flexible, collaborative, and responsive to children’s ideas.
Includes a nutritious snack.
All programs are best suited for children who can independently manage toileting, as we are not set up for diapering.
