Weekly Themes
Your child will not only build their skills, but build meaningful fun memories with friends over the summer. Our Summer program is far from repetitive, mundane, or monotonous.
Each week, we switch up the theme, and cater all of our activities throughout the week to that theme. For example, during “Summer Camp Out” week, we’ll make s’mores, go on a pretend bear hunt in the “woods”, set up a tent, and have a pretend campfire.
