Open House is less than a week away! If you’re in Utica, NY and interested in my program for your child age 2.5 and up, please consider attending.

🧠 I’ll be covering some in depth topics like the benefits of outdoor play for young children, social and emotional learning in early childhood, how we handle “bad weather” and the benefits of risky play.

📆 Fall enrollment is full for Tuesday & Thursday schedules. I still have space on Mon, Wed & Fri.

⏰ Daily outdoor play time is 9am to 12pm

To reserve a spot for the open house on May 13, at 1 pm, please send a DM or text to 631-418-7706.

Happy Spring! We have been enjoying the mud kitchen again in a real way. The winter was long and tough, but everyone’s been so thrilled to have ooey gooey mud again to play with. Here are a few of the wonderful moments we’ve had in the last couple weeks.

Exploring, mixing, digging, climbing. The kids have been busy!

We are looking for a few more students to join us fall 2025. If anyone is interested, it’s enrollment time now. Tuesdays and Thursdays are booked, but there are a few spots available for Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

Class is outside from 9am to 12pm, and for ages 3-6. This is a great fit for homeschooled kindergartners for socializing and outdoor time.

Ok, be honest, on a scale of 1-10, how much do you love taking your kids outside to play in the winter? 😏

Honesty, I know so many parents who truly hate it. That’s one of the reasons they enroll their kids here. We spend 2 hours or so outside every winter morning. The kids love it when they’re properly bundled up.

If you have a 3-5 year old and *need* to get them outdoors for some play in the winter, call or text 631-418-7706 ASAP. I’m in South Utica, and have a couple immediate spots for outdoor playschool on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

Hours are 9am to 12pm, cost is $75 for the three day spot.

So very important ❤️

We are gearing up for Winter and have two spots open for Mon, Wed, Fri, from 9am to 12pm. I’m accepting applications for 3-6 year olds, who love outdoors, especially during snowy cold weather.

Yep, the kids are really outside even when it’s cold and in the 20s and even teens. We do have an indoor space if the weather gets too windy or frigid.

Text Shulamis at 631-418-7706 or check https://www.outdoorplayschool.com to apply. Spots are available immediately and they will go fast!
