Open Hangouts
We’re here for the Hangout!
What happens when kids are prone to wonder?
The best adventures happen naturally when freedom and curiosity drive our learning experiences.
It’s time to be spontaneous!
When kids are prone to wonder, the best adventures happen naturally. No pressure. No set agenda. Just curiosity leading the way. Open Hangouts are blocks of time where Explorers choose their own adventure from all of the activities in our center. They might head to the art table, settle in with a good book, build something with their hands, solve a challenging puzzle, or join a group experience already underway. Some Explorers dive deep into a single project, while others wander from one interest to the next. There’s no wrong way to spend time here, and no need to follow someone else’s plan. Our Navigators offer encouragement and guidance, but Explorers lead the way!
