2025 Summer Camp!
Summer camp at Where the Wild Things Play promises to be a wild time! We’ve got fun and engaging activities that will make this summer unforgettable for the kiddos.
Our schedule varies each week, with sessions running Monday to Thursday from 9:00–11:30 AM some weeks and 1:00–3:30 PM on others. Pick the theme that excites you the most and the time that fits your schedule!
Camps feature daily themed art and science activities, plenty of playtime, and a snack each day. Designed by our education director—who has over 30 years of experience teaching Kindergarten and First Grade—these camps blend hands-on learning with summer fun.
Created for kids ages 4–8 (minimum age of 4, but some older kids may still enjoy the activities), our camps take place in a boutique setting with no more than 10 kids per week. Kids must be potty trained
Cost
160 per week +tax
