Early Years Camp (ages 18 months to 3 years)
Our Early Years (Playgroup) camps are designed for parents and children to attend together. While students are enjoying story, circle, and playtime, caregivers will work together on a special craft. This handmade item will be a beautiful keepsake, for you to keep, during our weeks together. 2025 Playgroup camps will be offered in two sessions. Session One: Every Tuesday, July 1, 8, 15, 22, 29. Session Two: Every Wednesday, July 2, 9, 16, 23, 30
Nursery Camp (ages 2-4)
Our play-based program nurtures a child’s natural growth through structured yet flexible daily rhythms, fostering socialization, connection, and independence. This drop-off program provides a well-balanced blend of indoor and outdoor activities, inviting children to splash in puddles, dig in the mud, and dance in the sunshine—encouraging joyful exploration and hands-on learning.
Early Childhood Camps (Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten age group)
Waldorf Education celebrates the riches of a child’s imagination. In our Early Childhood camp, simplicity is key. Toys are crafted of natural materials and feature beautiful colors and textures to encourage, but not overstimulate, the senses. There is a rhythm each day. We are helping your child build a strong foundation from the ground up. A Waldorf Early Childhood classroom is a sanctuary honoring the notion that a child’s play is their truest work.
