EverWilds nature immersion program encompasses forest-school and place-based learning philosophies. Children spend 100 percent of their day outdoors immersed in the local environment and alongside nature-based mentors. Children are guided by nature as they play, explore, discover, and create. Skilled Mentors support deeper learning through projects and place-based learning. Mentors develop projects and activities based on children’s interests, the changing of seasons, environmental stewardship skills, and Next Generation Science Standards. EverWild enhances children’s social and emotional development, 21st-century skills, and ecological literacy.
