Early Childhood

Tinkergarten was founded in 2012 by Meghan Fitzgerald and Brian Fitzgerald, with the mission of helping kids develop critical skills such as problem-solving, creativity and empathy through purposeful outdoor play. Their innovative curriculum, remote teacher training mode and on-demand service are designed to inspire a love of nature and a passion for learning. They have grown and trained a technology-enabled network of teachers to bring families together in local greenspaces for classes in all 50 states; and deliver training and curriculum directly to families at home. Tinkergarten has been recognized as one of the most innovative companies in early childhood education by Fast Company. Learn more at www.tinkergarten.com.
