For the 2026/2027 school year, the Learning Vine Preschool Program at The Grapevine meets on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings from 9am-1pm. This program welcomes children ages 3-5. Miss Amy and Miss Paula are the teachers for this outdoor based preschool program.

Our hands-on preschool program takes place almost entirely outdoors so that the children can move freely and breathe in fresh air everyday as they learn and play. We focus on fostering creativity, social interaction, problem solving, independence, physical movement and learning through games and activities.
Each morning the children arrive at the outdoor play yard and choose to play in the sandbox, swing, climb, run, play in the mud/snow kitchen, paint or complete a quiet activity in the play house. After some early playtime, the children are invited by chimes to our Morning Circle. This is where we gather together to sing, play games, have a snack and plan the rest of our day together. The interests of the children help guide our activities and games as well as nature and the seasons. Each preschool day we partner a planned activity with several open ended play activities the children can choose from. We eat lunch together and, toward the end of our day, the children are once again invited by chimes to our Closing Circle for storytime and a song.
At The Learning Vine Outdoor Preschool Program we strive to have every child feel welcomed and honored. We want each child’s first school experience to be fun and joyful!
