What your child’s day will look like

Let your children explore creativity and learning while having a blast on their day off! Children K-2 will stay engaged with an enriching day camp packed with a dynamic blend of STEM, art, literacy, and movement activities! Packed lunch required. Snacks provided. Discounts are available for siblings. Extended care available. Packing a Safe Lunch The playroom is a peanut and nut-safe facility. All ingredients should be checked to screen out products that contain nuts, are prepared in a factory where nuts are present, or on equipment that processes nut products. This will help eliminate any potential risk to children with nut allergies. Due to limited space in the playroom, refrigerators will not be available to keep your child’s lunch cold. Please use a gel pack or alternatives to keep food cold.
