​

​At Snails & Turkey Tails, we believe childhood is meant to be spent outdoors—exploring, creating, asking questions, and discovering the world through firsthand experiences.

​

Inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy, our programs encourage children to learn through curiosity, play, artistic expression, and meaningful connections with nature. Every gathering invites children to slow down, wonder, and become active participants in their own learning.

We offer a variety of outdoor experiences for young children and families throughout the year:

​

Nature Together (18 months–3 years)
A caregiver-and-child class filled with nature exploration, sensory play, stories, music, and open-ended art designed to nurture a lifelong love of the outdoors.

​​

Seasonal Camps
Throughout the year, our camps take children on adventures through Marin's forests, beaches, and parks. Every camp is filled with exploration, hiking, nature crafts, games, storytelling, and plenty of time for child-led play.

​

Every Snails & Turkey Tails program is designed to foster creativity, resilience, curiosity, and a deep sense of belonging in the natural world.
