Welcome to Nature's Playground!
We are happy to have you and to tell you about all of the ways that YOU can join us to play and learn outside. Emerging from the recent Tinkergarten restructure, we are here for you and the Virginia Beach community! From making "stone soup" to painting with natural items, we love finding new ways to turn the outdoors into our playground.
Our Mission
Nature's Playground connects people to nature and builds community through outdoor play
Our Values
Community of Support
The relationships that we form build each other up. Our Teacher/Guide/Explorer format creates an environment where the teacher inspires play while the explorers(children) engage in activities with guidance from their guides (grown-ups). Guides form bonds with other guides and support each other in supporting the play!
Play to Learn
We foster an atmosphere that supports child-led play and value play as a key component to learning
Love of Nature
Appreciating and caring for the natural spaces that invite us to play
Fun
The core of what we do. Have fun!
