Roots of Wonder Forest Program
CLICK HERE TO REGISTER
A Nature-Based Pre-Kindergarten Enrichment ProgramHosted by the Litchfield Community Center
Roots of Wonder invites children ages 3–5 to explore, play, and learn in an engaging, nature-centered environment. This unique program is designed to foster curiosity, creativity, and a deep appreciation for the natural world through hands-on activities and outdoor exploration.
Program Schedule:📅 Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays🕛 12:00 – 3:00 PM📍 Litchfield Community Center
Our mission is to nurture each child’s natural sense of wonder and empathy for the world around them, encouraging discovery and connection within our community
Katie P
Before moving back to the Northwest Corner, I worked as a Lead Teacher at the Young Naturalist Preschool in the Hudson Valley. There, we encouraged self-discovery through time spent in nature, expanding on children’s social and emotional skills through play-based learning. Prior to this, I worked across the country as an Environmental Educator in the State Park System and with Non-profit Organizations. Spending the most time with the Appalachian Mountain Club, where I guided and taught programs over three different states. I have always gravitated to the wonders that young children carry in them. Allowing them to explore, learn, and appreciate nature has been a great culmination of my passions and work experience, and I feel fortunate to provide these experiences to young children in my community.

Corynne K
Growing up in Litchfield, Connecticut, I ventured to Northern California, where I spent the past 13 years. I recently moved back to the area and am excited to share the experiences I gained while living and working in an off-grid community. I am an educator, nature lover, and mother who is deeply passionate about community-based learning. While in Northern California, I was a teacher and president of an off-grid, community school, where education was rooted in nature, connection, and resilience. While living in a rural area, I also started a playgroup through the First 5 program to support families with young children who had limited access to early-childhood resources. Community is incredibly important to me, and I am excited to share my passion for education, nature, and community through this program!
