[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Name names, OP! Which forrest school is this?
My kid is at the Audubon Nature Preschool, 100% outdoors and they have toilets. No pooping in holes, which sounds vile.

I'm happy to share the name but it's in the Shenandoah Valley, northern VA so my child's program probably wouldn't work for anyone on here.  I will say it is EXTREMELY popular in my area and spots fill up quickly.  We just lucked out with covid and the right timing to get in.  We had to let them know if early February if he was returning for 2022-2023....he's not sadly because while it was a WONDERFUL opportunity, the financial impact of having to pay for extra childcare was too much for us.  Between this program, his sitters, and summer care, we will have spent $15,000 on childcare this year for him....daycare is roughly $7,500 annually.  He's headed to a NAEYC-accredited preschool for prek.  I think a lot of families did 1-2 semesters for their children.  One parent I spoke with did 2 days a week forest school and 2 days a week a traditional part-time prek program.  Another family chose to have their child attend for 2 years and he's now going to start kindergarten.  Seems like a very bright, happy, well-adjusted child.  [/quote]
