Summer Season 2024


Summer 2024 Season Map

Every season we focus on a key skill for our young explorers and this summer our focus skill is 'Sensory'. We'll follow a curriculum designed to help each child strengthen and balance their senses in the most stimulating and soothing classroom of all- the great outdoors!

The season includes 3 units of experiential, child-led learning around the following themes:

Summer Class Dates/Times

Summer Tinkergarten will look a little different from a typical once weekly Tinkergarten season to offer families flexibility within busy summer plans.

The 8 class season will run for 4 weeks from July 11 - August 2 with a different themed class every Thursday and Friday from 10-11AM in Roger Williams Park. Class costs are designed around 4, 6 and 8 class options, so you can choose to attend once or twice a week, or plan to skip a few classes if you're on vacation.

Each class will include story time and lemonade, and we will maximize using available shade to keep us cool.

Summer Class Fees & Trial Classes

Please note that at registration you will be asked to check the dates that you are attending. This is to ensure the classes don't get too full and any necessary materials can be prepped. Classes may be rescheduled in the case of extreme weather or other factors outside of the instructor's control.
