7/6-7/10 Week 4 "All Sorts of Things" (Caterpillar Camp)
Description
Digging in the dirt, exploring the woods and riverbank, and climbing hills, trees, and over fallen logs are part of each day at Caterpillar Camp. Your little explorer will wonder, discover, and be inspired by the natural world. We will meet at the Avery Park Inclusive Playground (across the street from Parks & Recreation Admin Office at 1310 SW Avery Park Dr.) Monday-Thursday. After playing at the playground, we will head out on an adventure, spend a little time in NaturePlay Preschool’s backyard for lunch, art, and sensory activities, then back to the playground for pick-up. We will meet at nearby parks for Field Trip Fridays. Let's explore!

There are so many things we can find to sort in the nature world: colors, shapes, sizes, textures. We will go on a sorting adventure every day. Friday drop off will be at Crystal Lake Park and pickup will be at the rotary shelter at Willamette Park.

Camp schedule: Drop-off is between 9:15 - 9:30 am and camp activities run 9:30 am - 1:30 pm all week. No aftercare is offered for this camp.

Note: Campers must be three years old and completely potty trained by the time camp starts.
