Welcome!
I joyfully offer outdoor nature play classes following the Tinkergarten curriculum to young kids and their grownups in the Providence, RI area. We meet for 60 minute classes, where I guide families through songs, movement, exploration and purposeful play. This Fall our focus skill is WELLNESS—that combination of physical, mental and emotional health kids need to thrive. Follow the links to register or contact me to learn more. I'd love to learn with you!

Last summer, we had the joy of being featured in a series of newscasts about Nurturing Nature's Next Generation. Check it out for a glimpse of our classes!

How We Learn
Tinkergarten's curriculum is designed to help kids become healthy, curious, capable learners by exploring the outside world.
We have no walls. Creatures are our teachers, mud and sticks are our tools. Every lesson connects us to nature.
Kids learn best when they lead the way. We also help grownups support their child.
Each lesson is engineered to engage kids in play that they simply can’t refuse!
What's coming up at Nature Play with Vicky?
This Fall our focus skill is Wellness— that combination of physical, mental and emotional health kids need to thrive. Our curriculum will help kids develop language, strategies and habits that help build strong bodies, minds and hearts. As always creatures will be our teachers, and the magical, shifting autumn landscape will be our inspiration. Classes include closing circle tea and story time.
Classes will be held on Fridays at 1015AM in Roger Williams Park and run for 8 weeks starting September 12 (no class October 17).
