About Us

The Hudson Highlands Nature Museum is a nonprofit (501c3) center for nature, with a focus on Nature Education and Nature Play. In Collaboration with the Town of Warwick, HHNM is opening a Young Naturalist preschool program at Mountain Lake Park September 2023. This popular program offers three- and four-year-old's the opportunity to interact with other students and with nature in a hands-on and exciting way. Young Naturalists learn skills for school and beyond by exploring, experimenting, and discovering the world around them. HHNM's Young Naturalist (YN) Preschool program emphasizes science and nature-based activities, outdoor experiences, social skills, and preparation for kindergarten using the resources of the Nature Museum. The vital skills necessary for success in kindergarten are seamlessly integrated into the environmental curriculum.
