Program Details
What could be a better way to spend the summer than with outdoor adventures, creative play, art, and educational activities?
Each day our journey will take us to a local spot, where adventures will be turned into memories. Through these adventures, curiosity and an appreciation for nature will build confidence and self-esteem. It is a whole-child approach to nurturing the hands, heart, and mind of every child.
Miss Donna will offer morning, afternoon, and full day programs. This year the program will be located at the North Street Church, located at 235 North St. Hingham. This will be our meeting place for drop-off and pick-up, as well as carnival activities, and rainy-day play. Each day an adventure will be planned which will take up a good portion of the day, however art and other activities will take place at the church. The community playground up the street, at Hersey field will be used for group activities as well. A healthful snack will be provided each day, as well as popsicles at the end of most days.
The week will culminate with a carnival and pizza party every Friday. Tickets are earned each day through group challenges, scavenger hunts, team-building projects, and activities. All kids will have the opportunity to buy prizes with the tickets that they will have earned all week long.
Transportation is provided in licensed 7d school bus vans. Five-point harness seats are provided for children under the age of 5, and shoulder strap harnesses for children older than 5yrs. Camp is recommended for children 3.5 yrs. and older. Daily activities will be chosen based on campers’ ages, with Quest children engaging in more challenging activities like orienteering, archery, skilled crafting, biking and creating their own Quest challenge to be enjoyed by all campers. Some of our favorite weekly activities include hunting for gold, crabbing, hiking, turtle feeding, grasshopper hunting, fort building, gnome/fairy home building, scavenger hunts and water balloon games.
