Playdough, Sand, and Mud Kitchen Camp

This hands-on preschool camp blends sensory exploration with imaginative role-play, offering children a "mud-tastic" experience in a dedicated outdoor kitchen. Campers create "mud pies", mix potions, and mold playdough to develop fine motor skills, social interaction, and creativity using natural materials like mud, water, sand, and leaves.

Pirates Lost at Sea
LARPD Preschool Staff
Yo Ho, Yo Ho! Our pirates are lost at sea! This camp allows our preschool pirates to embark on their ships and take on the adventures of the deep blue sea. Not only will our children get to participate in traditional pirate crafts and activities, but they will also learn about the ocean and some aquatic animals they may encounter in the open ocean. Our play-based camp also includes water play, music and movement, and science activities that relate to our camp theme, while they build on their social and emotional skills.

Transportation and Building Camp

This hands-on camp immerses children in the world of vehicles and construction. Through sensory bins, LEGO building, and imaginative play, campers develop STEM skills by building with blocks, designing simple machines (wheels, axles), exploring how cars, trucks, trains, planes, and boats operate, getting us from here to there and everywhere.
