Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.
Each week has a theme to guide the specific activities, from “Kitchen Chemistry” to “Insects.” These themes influence the week’s art activities, songs, games, and stories.
The Phil Dejana Outdoor Learning Center is equipped with sensory materials like disks of tree bark, tables for collecting scientific specimens (rocks, pine cones, and more), and tools for making musical noise. Campers have access to all the beautiful trails, a freshwater pond, mature forest, and a large meadow. When the weather isn’t cooperative, campers play in air-conditioned rooms inside the Learning Center and in Castle Gould.
The camp is staffed with teachers with degrees in early childhood education, along with an energetic, creative group of college students and teenagers as assistants who are directed by the experience of the seasoned teachers.
The Camp provides transportation on air-conditioned buses. The teachers are the drivers, providing additional continuity between home and camp, as well as a familiar face for the children. The supportive environment of the Happy Montessori Summer Day Camp is a wonderful way for a child to spend a summer and transition to school, whether for the first time or as a returning student.
