Little Leaps: Outdoor Discovery Class
Little Leaps is a branch of Outdoor Adventure Education (OAE) at Inspiration Point. This class is for preschool age children (3-5 years old and potty trained) that pairs learning with outdoor exploration and hands-on activities. Students will discover the world in which we live by experiencing it, in nature, for themselves. The class aims to provide opportunities for students to increase their curiosity and sense of wonder by spending time in God's beautiful creation!
