My almost 6 year old loves the Jr Naturalist program! He really enjoys being outside, and all the hiking and exploring that they do. The staff are very knowledgeable, kind, fun, and welcoming.

We love Discovery Central! It would be helpful for us if the monthly newsletter continued.

Communicated messages have been confusing (like where drop off/pick up is located) as different staff have shared different info, however this feels small and everything else has been phenomenal!! We feel so fortunate to be a DC family!

Philosophy

Our unique programs aim to foster a love of learning, a positive foundation for later education, and a drive toward creativity. In order to accomplish this, we make use of the natural beauty of Marquette County, our regularly updated knowledge of the way children learn, and our passion for creating individual bonds with children and families.

Location

Deep in the forest, yet minutes from downtown!

About our program

We hold regular enrolled and alumni family events! We strive to be outdoors as much as possible in all safe weather during the week.
