About
Nature Kidz Preschool is an outdoors-only program. With nature as our classroom, we build our student's focus, curiosity, and intuition as we encounter The Presidio's natural wildlife (bugs, animals, and plant species). Students investigate new findings daily rain or shine!
We spend our time outside participating in hands-on structured and unstructured activities. Students will do everything they would in a traditional preschool and
more, only outside rather than inside. While exploring their natural surroundings, students will develop their self confidence and manage risk as they stumble, climb, and explore the uneven terrain.
Each week we dive into a new specialized activity such as kite flying, riding bikes and scooters, gardening, hands on science and discovery, journaling, yoga, music, and weekly soccer and tennis practice with professional coaches!

Learning Through Exploration

Rain or Shine
With no indoor classrooms, we make sure to prepare activities and our students to enjoy all of San Francisco's seasons. During light rainy days we splash in puddles with our rain boots, rain pants, warm layers, rain coats, and use our school canopy as needed. If the weather is too extreme our group takes a field trip to the library or Academy of Sciences for the day!

Full Days or Half Days
We offer full days or half days at Nature Kidz. Our newest and most popular option, our full-day program tends to fill up fast - so if you’re interested, get in touch today to reserve a spot for your child.
