Philosophy

The philosophy of Appleseeds home nursery is based on the belief that children learn best through indoor and outdoor play with natural materials in an environment that follows a regular daily and weekly rhythm. Much of the day is spent outdoors doing activities that strengthen gross motor skills through such activities as climbing, digging, and building. Toys are intentionally simple to encourage the child to create their own stories and broaden their imagination.
Special activities for each day of the week give the child a sense of calm and healthy expectation for the day. Seasonal festivities for the whole family give both parents and children a sense of community and belonging as well as wonderful times to look forward to throughout the year. All of our activities - both daily, weekly, and seasonally are designed to meet the child on a physical, mental and spiritual level.
