Toddler Camp is for children 2 years of age and also for 3-year-olds who are not yet (or in the process of being) potty trained. Toddler Camp has a 4:1 child:staff ratio (space is limited, a maximum of 12 children are enrolled in each session). Toddler Camp includes the following activities: Montessori class time, arts & crafts, water-play, outdoor games/free play. We will not have pony rides for our Toddler Campers. Children who are in the process of being potty trained will be placed in Toddler Camp.

Senior Camp for children ages 3 to 5 includes the following major activities: Montessori, daily swimming, arts & crafts, sports & games and daily pony rides. Each group of children has a junior counselor who remains with the group throughout the day and serves as the assistant for each activity. In addition, there is an assistant swimming instructor in the pool at all times along with the head swimming instructor (lifeguard certified). Children registered in this group MUST be 100% potty trained without the use of pull ups. Children must be fully potty trained in order to participate in the Senior Camp. Senior Camp hours for the half day are 8:15 a.m.- 12:00 p.m.

Our program is centered around the natural curiosity that exists in children. We build on their intrigue with age-appropriate experiences that encourage learning in a creative and supportive environment.
