During our daily Pre-Kindy program, 3-4-year-old children will be immersed in the wonders of nature through play and exploration, fostering holistic development and a lifelong love of learning, and the environment.

Our Pre-Kindy program is a great opportunity for your child to benefit from self-directed adventure play in a supported, wild space.

What Do We Do at Little Wildlings?

Our Pre-Kindy program introduces young children to the wonders of outdoor learning and nature exploration through:

  • Play-Based Learning: Builds creativity, problem-solving, and social skills.

  • Nature Exploration: Hands-on interaction to connect with nature.

  • Child-Directed Play: Guided by children’s interests for independence and curiosity.

  • STEM Basics: Age-appropriate science, tech, engineering, and math skills.

  • Literacy & Numeracy: Early reading, writing, and counting through teachable moments.

  • Social Skills: Emphasis on teamwork, communication, and relationships.

  • Physical Activity: Outdoor play for motor skills and physical health.

  • Mindfulness: Supports awareness, emotional regulation, and relaxation.

  • Artistic Expression: Creative outlets through art and storytelling.

  • Safe Exploration: Manageable risks to build confidence and resilience.

It is likely, however, that your child will be much more interested in:

  • Playing in shallow, freshwater creeks

  • Going on bush walks and spotting wildlife

  • Making bush crafts

  • Using hand tools

  • Or playing in our “mud kitchen”

Which we wholeheartedly support, encourage, and will follow their lead!
