2024 Summer Camp!

Summer camp at Where the Wild Things Play promises to be a wild time! We’ve extended our camp pickup time to 4:30pm each afternoon for caregiver convenience, so each week of camp now runs Monday - Thursday from 1PM to 4:30PM daily 🎉

Camps feature daily themed art and science activities, lots of play, and a daily snack. Curated by our education direction who has more than 30 years teaching kids in Kindergarten and First Grade, they offer a great way to blend hands-on learning with easy summer fun.

Camps are created for kids ages 4-8 (minimum age of 4, but some older kids will still enjoy the activities), and take place in a boutique setting with no more than 16 kids per week.

Week Six | Share the Love

All of the fun of any other camp week - but with a twist! This week, we'll talk about acts of kindness and ways we can give back to our communities. Each day, we'll focus on a new area of service (shelter animals, connecting with senior citizens in our community, taking care of the Earth, and local community heroes). We'll take home Giving Jars that will help us carry these ideas through our lives at home for days and months to come!
