Field Trips
Learning Inside and Outside the Classroom
Discovery and exploration are an important part of Stepping Stones philosophy and what better way is there to “discover” and “explore” than by taking a field trip! Nothing sparks a child’s imagination and love of learning quite like being immersed in an experience. Beginning in our Toddler Classroom, Stepping Stones hosts on-site interactive activities that enhance and bring to life weekly themes being explored in the classroom.
Our Early Preschool through School age children participate in off-site field trips to explore the world around them.
Special visitors in the classroom are wonderful way for kids to have a hands-on experience related to lessons they are learning in the classroom. Families are welcome and encouraged to share their time, talents and traditions in Stepping Stones classrooms.
Note: field trips typically incur an additional charge.
