A Nature-Based Montessori Program in Kittery, Maine
Building compassionate caretakers of the Earth through hands-on learning.
White Pine Programs and Brixham Montessori Friends School have come together to establish a high-quality, year-round preschool at the Kittery Community Center.
The traditions of Montessori, influenced by nature.
We are deeply committed to nurturing the whole child while providing exposure to all the wonders of nature. Children at Seeds of Wonder have uninterrupted Montessori work periods daily in addition to time in our outdoor classroom. The time spent in nature integrates free play with child-led activities in art, music, literacy and math.
Accessible programming at Kittery Community Center.
Seeds of Wonder is a year-round preschool that serves families across the Seacoast. We offer Kittery residents and those employed in Kittery a 5% discount on tuition. To keep the program within reach of all families, we offer a sliding scale tuition for families who qualify.
“Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.”
― Rachel Carson, The Sense of Wonder
“All spiritual life begins with a sense of wonder, and nature is a window into that wonder.”
