Keep in Step with the Seasons
Our calendar page is your guide to the unfolding rhythm of life at Northwoods Forest School. Here you’ll find key dates for our preschool program, upcoming family events, special workshops, and seasonal celebrations.
We encourage families to check back often—just as the forest changes with each season, so too does our shared journey. We’ll keep this space updated with everything you need to feel connected, prepared, and inspired.
Summer
This summer, we’re opening our forest gates to our youngest explorers—children ages 3.5 to 6 years old—for a season of sunshine, stories, and barefoot wonder.
Our Summer Program follows the same gentle rhythm families have come to love, with playful outdoor adventures, seasonal crafts, water play, and hands-on discovery. Rooted in Waldorf principles and nature-based learning, each day invites children to slow down, soak in the season, and grow through meaningful experiences in the woods.
Whether building fairy homes beneath the pines, digging in the garden, or sharing snack circles under the sun, our summer days are designed to nurture joy, confidence, and connection.
