What Our Escorted Parents Say
What Our Escorted Parents Say
"We have loved being a part of Butterfly Outing Group this year and can't wait to join you again next year. You make every hike educational, fun, and magical. Elliot loves coming to hiking group and so do I! Thank you so much for all of the care & hard work you put into each hike."
E's mom
"You passion for outdoors and your approch to teaching have opened our eyes to the wonders of the natural world. But what really rocks is how you have taught us to find the fun in everything, even the most boring stuff. Thank you for sharing us the simple pleasures in life, we are incredibly grateful."
Ch & S's Mom
"I am so happy to find this outing club. I can spend time with my child in nature, not in a classroom. Teacher Nancy is AMAZING!! She taught us a new way to explore, learn and enjoy in nature. We had so much fun!! My son's favorite part was singing songs when hiking. Can't wait to have our next outing!!"
I's mom
"The Little Butterfly outing is so meaningful! My child was having so much fun, kept telling me '开心! 开心! ' (开心 means happy in Mandarin) throughout the outing! , I am so thankful that Teacher Nancy is willing to run this program! Both of us got so much education out of this outing, besides were able to bond with each other during fun time and also difficult time. This is the dream outdoors preschool that I have been looking for!"
