Curiosity, play, and joy at the heart of learning.

 

Serving the Mill Creek, Lynnwood, Bothell and Everett Community.

Raindrops Nature School is an educational program that cultivates future leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs. We aim to reframe the way society looks at play, our connection to nature and collaboration. We place value on integrating pedagogies like Waldorf, Montessori, Reggio and Forest, to develop a curriculum that is specific to your child’s style of learning. We believe that learning programs should be malleable and interconnected in order to meet the Whole Child. We want to empower children to think resourcefully, to engage their divergent thinking, to seek and solve problems, and to build on all of their natural capabilities. Our classes offer children an opportunity to engage in multisensory activities, embark on personal and group projects birthed in play, use open ended materials that engage imagination, and encourage and support children to reach outside their comfort zones. Research* shows that children who have uninhibited, ample time to play with open-ended materials in multisensory environments develop their executive function skills, their divergent thinking and build the confidence and the willingness to take cognitive, social and emotional risks. Join us and be the change the children deserve in this ever changing world!
