2024 Caterpillar Camp (Preschool)
Description
Digging in the dirt, exploring the natural world, and making art with reusable materials - we have something for everyone! Caterpillar Camp will be all outdoors, with occasional trips inside Avery House to say hello to the indoor animals. We will meet near the Avery Park Dinosaur Bones Monday-Thursday, and nearby parks for bike days on Fridays. We encourage children to bring their own bikes, or we have pedal-free strider bikes and helmets to borrow. Let's explore!

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

You will be asked to select which weeks your preschooler will be able to attend. We will use the following topics as a starting point for each week and see where the children’s ideas and imaginations take us:

Session 1: 6/24-6/28 “Let’s Go Walking”

Session 2: 7/1-7/3 "Little Adventure" (Cost $130)

Session 3: 7/8-7/12 “Let’s Go an Adventure”

Session 4: 7/15-7/19 “We’re Going on a Nature Hunt”

Session 5: 7/22-7/26 “Hug a Tree- what we love about nature”

Session 6: 7/29-8/2 “Trailblazing”

Session 7: 8/4-8/9 “Searching High, Looking Low”

Session 8: 8/12-8/16 “Whose House Is That?”

Session 9: 8/19-8/23 “Hide and Seek”

Session 10: 8/26-8/30 “Happy Trails”
