Through sensory-focused sessions, little ones discover and explore nature with walks, art, music and stories, following the hands-on, emergent learning approach used in the center's Nature Preschool. It is a good way for very young children to start nature-based learning. Pre-registration is required because space is limited. ## Similar picks in Philadelphia - [Schuylkill Center Day-Off Camp — Election Day and Veterans Day](https://grassyknees.com/philadelphia/activities/schuylkill-center-day-off-camp-election-day-and-veterans-day--listing-a561c62d5c9c640b8f0e7ca0) — Wed, Nov 11 · 8:00 AM – 3:00 PM · The Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education · From $90 · checked Oct 30.
