Active, Hands-On, Engaging Programs

PUDDLESTOMPERS' after school programming for K-2nd graders is known as OUTDOOR EXPLORERS. Our active and fun learning programs connect children in K-2nd grade to nature in all four seasons by using hands-on exploration, games, songs, crafts, and stories.

Science Outside the Classroom

Some of the schools we serve

As science specialists, we engage and foster the vibrant curiosity of young children for the natural world. Our lessons not only reinforce what children may be learning about in school, but they provide even more opportunities to learn about and engage with the natural world.
