The morning schedule will consist of four structured activities and a snack. Campers will divide into age appropriate groups to attend each morning session.
Weekly Theme
Having a weekly theme at lower school summer camp is essential for creating a structured and engaging experience for young campers. Themes provide a cohesive focus, allowing for a variety of activities and projects centered around a central idea, which keeps children excited and motivated. This approach adds variety to the camp experience, ensuring that each week offers something new and intriguing, while also integrating educational elements into fun activities. Themes foster creativity and exploration, as campers delve into different concepts and apply their imagination in themed contexts. Additionally, a shared theme enhances teamwork and builds a sense of community, as children collaborate on projects and participate in group activities. Overall, weekly themes make the camp experience more dynamic, memorable, and enjoyable for everyone involved.
Physical Education
Each morning, campers will engage in focused, physical activity. We will stretch muscles and bodies with activities like basketball, tag games, soccer, tumbling, throwing and catching, and running. Children will have the opportunity to participate in a different physical activity each day of the week. In competitive and noncompetitive games, campers will develop cooperation and communication skills. This daily session will combine physical education with the fun of recess.
Educator-Led Activities
The final two rotations will be led by experienced educators and include a wide variety of activities including STEM, Art, Design Space, and more! Projects will fit within a single week long session and include hands-on activities and educational opportunities. We aim to keep kids engaged and having fun to make for a most memorable summer!
