Nature Adventure Camp for Ages 4-6 (Sold Out)
July 17, 2023 @ 9:30 am - 1:30 pm
Monday-Friday, July 17-21, 9:30 a.m.-1:30 p.m.
Our summer nature camps provide fun and enriching opportunities for young people to learn about the natural world. Exploration-filled activities will take us on adventures throughout the Gardens and surrounding forests as we investigate bugs, birds, food chains, mammals, sun power, and much more. Through observations, games, stories, experiments, and nature-related projects, campers will be well on their way to becoming young naturalists by the end of the week!
Karen Jones is the Camp Coordinator for the Gardens. Karen brings with her over fifteen years of teaching experience working with children of all ages. She holds a bachelor’s degree in math/science with a concentration in early childhood education and a master’s degree in leadership and policy in early childhood education, both from Wheelock College. She currently teaches first grade at Hall-Dale Elementary.
NEW for 2023! Optional Extended Explorations, 1:30-3:30 p.m., every day after camp ends
Does your child want extra time after camp to explore the Children’s Garden, catch frogs, or build a fairy house? Does a later pick-up time work better for you? In this new offering, campers will have the opportunity to spend an extra two hours exploring, playing, and discovering after the regular camp day ends. Activities will be led by an Education staff member and will include games, hikes, and lots of nature discovery in our gardens and beyond. This option will be available at checkout.
