Details about the Small Steps Group

What: Small Steps — a small group expressive arts and play-based enrichment program for anxious preschoolers who do better with a slower pace and smaller group. Not clinical/therapy, just enrichment, no diagnosis needed to join.

Who: Kids ages 3-5, capped at 3 total.

Where: The Real Work, rotating between the covered outdoor deck, the uncovered outdoor area, the indoor tiny house (for seated/quieter activities), and daily walks to the neighborhood park.

Space rotation:

Covered deck: home base for most of the morning — arrival, circle time, crafts, snack

Uncovered outdoor area: gross motor play, big theatre games, child led free play

Tiny house: seated, quieter activities (it’s small, so it’s for focused work)

Neighborhood park: daily walk up the street for a change of scenery and transition practice

When: September 15 – October 15, 2026. Three mornings a week, 9am-noon. 12 sessions total, ending with a small, low-pressure closing share for families. This time of year is before the rainy season kicks in. We might have some rainy days, but it won’t be freezing either. Tolerable to throw on a jacket and run around outside.


Price: $900 per camper for the full 4 weeks. $100 deposit to hold the spot, then $150/week for 4 weeks.
