Root & Bloom Playgarden is a Waldorf-inspired, nature based preschool. We are located in Downtown Benicia next to Avant Community Garden.

We provide a warm and beautiful environment because children take in deeply what they hear, see and feel. Our indoor space is full of beautiful materials such as silk cloths, wooden toys, handmade puppets and high quality art supplies.

A large portion of our day is spent outdoors playing in the garden, where children are provided with the opportunity to engage in unstructured play activities with natural elements, such as logs, mud, sand and water. As children run, dig, explore and overcome challenges along the way, they build confidence, improve their motor skills; and, as part of a group of other children, learn about social interaction.
