Cummins Child Development Center

Our Nature Explore classrooms are very unique and special because they are customized to the existing surrounding habitats. For example, there is a rather large creek that flows behind our center. Consequently, we had an observation deck built for the children to observe the creek and all of the wildlife that congregates there. The geese family who laid their eggs in the Nature Explore area are now following their parents around the creek and eating the tall grass that grows there.

e observed a white fox who made our Nature Explore his home for a few days. He was observed eating the wild blackberries along the fence and sleeping in the shade of the Ash trees.. Our orchard is spectacular in the spring with all of its blossoms. We have apple, pear, peach, and cherry trees that are now producing immature fruit. Another unique area is the “woodland or forest” area which is a magical area. The children like to walk among the trees and pretend they are in the forest.
