Farm School: Summer Semester


  • Sand n' Straw Community Farm 629 Mar Vista Drive Vista United States (map)

Join us for our extended summer program for our youngest pioneers!

The day of the Little Pioneers commences with singing, physical movement, and storytelling under the shade trees. Afterward, they embark on an adventure walk to the Tipi, stopping to observe nature and farm activities along the way. At the Tipi, children engage in pretend play in a mock Luiseno Tribe Village, which includes a Tipi, play campfire, fishing in the creek, weaving, and gathering acorns. Moreover, they explore nature, STEAM, and themed-based learning centers that focus on language arts, prewriting, fine motor skills, early math, science, sensory bins, and more.

In addition, they visit one learning station such as Nature, Learning Garden, Art, Farm Animal visit, or Kitchen before heading on another adventure walk to the Little Pioneers area. In this area, they enjoy their Snack and Free Play, where they practice social interaction and move between play stations such as play kitchens & farm stands, puppet theater, toy animals, cars/trucks, sensory tubs, puzzles, lacing, drawing, and reading books.

Finally, they end their day with singing, dancing, and sharing a recap of the day before pick up, where they started in the morning.
