Desert Forest School Enrichment

Children sitting on the floor playing a game together.

Desert Circles: Roadrunners & Quails (Ages 4-8)

 Where curiosity leads and nature becomes the teacher.


Guided by the rhythms of the seasons, children explore the wonders of the natural world through observation, storytelling, science, art, movement, mindfulness, and hands-on adventures that inspire wonder, connection, 

and joyful learning. 


Rooted in a whole-child approach, this class nurtures the mind, body, and spirit—supporting social-emotional growth, self-awareness, and confidence.

Desert Circle: Coyotes (Ages 8-12)

 Where curiosity leads and nature becomes the teacher.


Guided by the rhythms of the seasons, students become thoughtful observers of the natural world through field studies, science, literature, journaling, creative expression, mindfulness, and hands-on exploration. Together, we foster curiosity, resilience, stewardship, and a deeper understanding of the interconnectedness

 of all living things. 


Rooted in a whole-child approach, this class nurtures the mind, body, and spirit—supporting social-emotional growth, self-awareness, and confidence.
