Join Dodge Nature Preschool for a one-day conference designed to inspire and encourage outdoor learning in early childhood. Find inspiration, engage in dialogue with colleagues, and learn practical ideas to help incorporate nature-based education into your classroom and school environment. 

Join us at the Learning Conference to:

• hike with a guide through Dodge Nature Center and Preschool grounds
• observe in preschool outdoor classrooms
• engage with materials in the resource room
• participate in two breakout sessions:
  1. Habitat Hike: With the guidance of a Dodge Nature Center naturalist, learn about local habitats and ecosystems. Find out what natural resources you can use to go deeper in your own setting.
  2. Nature’s Curriculum: Hear from Dodge Nature Preschool teachers how nature is used to guide their curriculum in all domains. Get hands-on with inquiry experiences, wild edibles, animal encounters, and more.

Cost: $90/participant. This includes a light breakfast, lunch, and materials. Please come prepared to spend time outdoors.
