Truckee SUMMER CAMP FOR AGES 4½-6½
AGES 4½-6½ • Truckee
Nature Adventure
We fully immerse ourselves in the forest in this playful camp. We spend our days looking for tracks, building with sticks and finding natural treasures. We learn from the landscape through experiences and play. This place-based camp is for the younger crew and focuses on experiencing the magic of nature in a hands-on, fun way. Timeless exploration, storytelling and free play balanced by creative nature-based activities and games. Group participation skills are invisibly woven into the day. We create a very safe and nurturing environment where it is easy to make friends and feel a part of the pack.
This camp is appropriate for first time as well as experienced campers ages 4½-6½.
In addition to our core curriculum, this camp may include:
Nature based play
Staying safe in the wilderness
Natural crafts and games
Knowledge of local plants and animals
An animal ambassador visit (when conditions allow)
Fort building
A bit of magic
and more...
