A Joyful, Play-Based Summer Experience for Children - Ages 3-7

❋ Child-Led Exploration
Set within the beautiful indoor and outdoor environment of the Cooper School, children learn through direct interaction with nature.

Art, storytelling, building, and imaginative play are woven throughout the day, giving children multiple ways to express ideas and collaborate with peers in meaningful ways.
❋ Creative Expression & Collaboration
Each day is filled with laughter, movement, and surprise as campers dive into games, splashy summer fun, and imaginative adventures that make learning feel like pure summer magic.
