Camp

Schedules are approximate based on the weather, we are able to stay outside a little longer during the beautiful days, gloomier days we will go indoors for more engaging activities or periods of free play and games. In summer we try to get out as much as possible. We can snack outside, and do physical activities, science activities and exploratries. We love summer!

When your child starts their first day, please bring the following items that will stay at the camp for the period the child is enrolled:

• A pair of shoes for the inside; Unless your child knows how to tie their shoes, we strongly prefer running shoes with velcro (to help the child develop independence). ALL shoes must have non-marking (white) soles.
  Spare clothes in a Ziploc bag: Sweater, pants, underwear and socks
  A swimsuit and a towel bearing the child’s name (for outside water games on hot days)
• Snowwear, neck warmers, tuques and outdoor mittens with snow boots

For campers who want to bring their own lunch box to eat to their taste:

• Two snacks (for the morning and afternoon) in an insulated lunch box with a “IcePack” type chiller and their main meal hot in a thermostat or sandwich container in ziploc bags and dessert.

What should I send for snacks?

• Chopped fruits or vegetables
• yogurt
• Crackers and cheese
• Muffin
• Little sandwich
• Granola bar without nuts
• Dried fruits
• HEALTHY SNACKS (no chocolate or sweets!)
• And do not forget especially bottles of water.

SNACKS MUST NOT CONTAIN NUT. PLEASE READ THE LABELS CAREFULLY. ANY “HOME” FOOD WITHOUT PACKAGING MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A WRITTEN NOTE FROM THE PARENT THAT THE SNACK IS FREE OF NUTS.
