🌿🌼 Connecting Little Explorers to the Natural World

Why Choose Eagle Bluff Nature Preschool?

1. Kindergarten Readiness with a Twist: Eagle Bluff’s Nature Preschool program is designed for children ages 3 to 5. They use environmental education as a powerful tool to support each child’s holistic development. From counting ladybugs to identifying bird calls, every moment is a learning adventure.
2. Outdoor Exploration: While the day at nature preschool begins with breakfast and warms up in the classroom, the little explorers spend the bulk of their days outdoors, rain or shine. They explore the forests, prairies, ponds, and other natural areas at Eagle Bluff, while discovering the magic of nature firsthand.
3. Meals & Gear Included: Nature preschoolers enjoy meals (breakfast, lunch, and snack) and have access to outdoor gear. No need to worry about packing lunches or rain boots.
4. Flexible Scheduling: Eagle Bluff understands busy family lives. Their new flexible scheduling options accommodate more families. Plus, they’re conveniently located on a beautiful 250-acre campus just outside Lanesboro.

• Indoor & Outdoor Learning: Nature preschoolers have the best of both worlds. They gather in Eagle Bluff’s intentionally-designed indoor classroom as they arrive each morning, eat breakfast, gear up, and explore the outdoor classroom until lunch (including multiple nature playspaces). The great outdoors is their canvas for creativity.
• Hands-On Discovery: From observing tadpoles in the pond to creating nature artwork, the little learners engage in hands-on activities that ignite their curiosity.
• Located in the Driftless Area: Nestled in rural southeastern Minnesota, just a few miles from the historic town of Lanesboro, Eagle Bluff offers a unique setting for nature-based learning.
