Welcome To Woodland Playhouse!
"Imagination is more important than knowledge." - Albert Einstein
​
At Woodland Playhouse, we believe in play. Our teachers work together to create a warm, welcoming, comfortable environment that allows children the space and opportunities to grow, learn, and thrive. In this space, children find themselves on the path to becoming independent, compassionate, self-confident individuals. Experiential exploration and both free and guided play plant the seeds for healthy learning. We devote our days to allowing children to experience the magic of their own imaginations and lay the foundation for later academic success. We prioritize time outdoors every day, in all types of weather, for the mental and physical health and well-being of all children and staff at Woodland Playhouse.
​
Woodland Playhouse was established in 2007. We are a small center preschool licensed by the New York State Office of Children and Family Services and a certificated Universal Pre-Kindergarten provider through the Onteora Central School District. In addition, our summer camps are licensed through Ulster County.
What's happening at Woodland Playhouse?
Our 2025-2026 school year is well underway, and we have a few openings available! Woodland Playhouse is spending another school year in a partnership with the Onteora School District as one of the CBO's facilitating Onteora's UPK programming in combination with private enrollments with individual families as well as accepting payments through Ulster County Department of Social Services. If you're considering enrolling your child in a program this school year, please reach out to Christina to set up a tour!
Unfortunately, we've had to put our new building plans on "pause" as we await the next big grant coming out of New York State. Woodland Playhouse will be applying for a Child Care Grant specifically designed to support programs expanding current spaces or building new ones. Fingers crossed for all of us.
Happy fall,
Christina & The WP Team
