Nature is our classroom and studio.
Welcome to Cedar & Bones!
We are a nature-based preschool in Northwest Portland for children ages 3 to 5.
Our days are spent exploring outdoors in all seasons, making art, solving problems, building friendships, and developing confidence through movement, curiosity, creativity, and play.
Daily Rhythm
Our days are spent outdoors and follow a steady rhythm while leaving room for weather, seasons, wildlife, and children’s interests.
