At Brooklyn Wild, we support children’s autonomy and social skills through play, nature exploration and inquiry.

 

Our all-outdoor after school classes mix forest school with adventure play, offering the space and time for kids to be as they are, follow their own ideas, no judgments and no adult agendas. Whether it's digging worms, climbing trees, writing books, identifying birds, following waterways, creating elaborate games or trying on social roles through pretend play--it all happens here. Playworkers and nature educators gently support the group dynamic, following the students' interests and curiosity, building trust and warm relationships, while maintaining safe boundaries.

​

When dangerously inclement weather is forecast for the entire class, we visit indoor spaces like the library or Industry City.  

​

No classes on school holidays.
