10-week small-group program in Basking Ridge. Screen-free, imaginative, and gentle

“I wish we had something like this for overstimulated adults!” -Pilot Parent

A gentle introduction to story and play

Dust Bunnies is a small, screen-free class where young children step inside stories together.

Each week, we hear a simple folk tale and bring it to life using movement, voice, props, and a bit of costume.

It’s playful, imaginative, and designed to help children feel comfortable participating, expressing ideas, and being part of a group.

What a session looks like

Each 60-minute class follows a simple, steady rhythm:

  • Arrival — a quiet welcome into the space

  • Story — a tale told with movement and participation

  • Play — children step into the story together

  • Group work — shaping and retelling moments as a group

  • Closing — returning to the circle and ending the story

What children build

  • Imagination and creative play

  • Comfort using body and voice

  • Listening and turn-taking

  • Early collaboration

  • Confidence in a group
