Three Year Olds

The work of a three year old is play. The program for our youngest
campers involves numerous free-play activities including dramatic play, block
building, painting, working with clay, playing games, and reading stories. The children also
have opportunities to participate in gymnastics, art, nature, and music. For this program,
the campers must be three years old by November 1st and toilet trained. Each camper is part of
a group of eight boys and girls with a counselor and counselor-in-training.

Four Year Olds

A variety of activities including gymnastics, art, music, creative drama,
and nature are planned for our four-year-old campers in a schedule that also allows time for free
play. Exploration, enrichment, readiness, and discovery are among the goals of this program. The campers
must be four years old by November 1st or going into kindergarten in the fall of 2008.
