Explore the world with curiosity, kindness toward nature, and wonder for how things work.
This program has six sessions where we read fun picture books about nature and science and then do simple hands-on activities together. Each session has ~30 minutes of reading about things like the Sun, gravity, water, animals, or the environment, followed by 10–15 minutes of easy games, mini experiments, or creative projects that everyone can join.
It’s designed for neurodivergent students who enjoy discovering how things work in a calm and supportive environment.
Activities are visual, sensory-friendly, and at a relaxed pace so everyone feels comfortable and included.
Our book list includes:
- The Sun Is Kind of a Big Deal
- Water Can Be...
- All Cats Are on the Autism Spectrum
