Become a Sprouting Scientist this spring! In this immersive camp, we will unearth the mysteries of seeds and soil. We will focus on hands-on, seasonal activities like planting seeds and learning about composting and soils. Blending science with practical skills, we will be using nature and the farm as the classroom for exploration, art, and teamwork. Whether they are launching nutrient-rich seed balls or creating a worm observation tower, your young scientist will spend the week planting, creating eco-art, and solving nature’s mysteries as a team!
Camp Activities:
Storytime Exploration: Each camp will begin with an interactive and exploratory storytime. We will discuss our theme of the day, read correlated stories and poems, sing songs, and explore the farm. We will use seasonal literature to deepen the connection between the campers and Rosewood Farm’s landscape.
Arts & Crafts: Our arts and crafts curriculum is reimagined as a bridge between scientific observation and creative expression, effectively transforming the entire farm into a vibrant outdoor studio. Campers will treat the landscape as their palette, gathering inspiration from the textures of the barnyard and the colors of the surrounding nature. By integrating natural elements, children don't just observe the farm; they use its raw materials to engineer functional art that give back to the ecosystem they are studying.
Cooking: Our campers will have the opportunity to create and enjoy farm-to-table snacks using hands-on engagement with seasonal produce. Not only will we be able to enjoy a delicious snack, we will have the freedom and creativity to produce our own themed-snack and enjoy it with our friends!
Game Time: We will focus on developing gross motor skills like balance, coordination, and strength through high-energy, themed games! These activities, such as barnyard tag and harvest relay, are designed to build gross motor strength and coordination, while fostering a sense of teamwork and fun!
What to Bring:
Sunscreen (please apply before camp starts)
Bug spray
Waterbottle with your child’s name on it
Please email [email protected] to alert us of any allergies your child may have.
Logistics: This is a drop-off camp, allowing young adventurers to independently immerse themselves in the farm experience. Parents or guardians are kindly requested to sign a waiver at drop-off, ensuring a smooth and safe experience for all participants. Please have your child dressed ready to play and explore! We will be using natural materials and investigating our farm, so we may get a little dirty in the process. This camp will mainly be held outside, so please dress for the weather. In case of inclement weather, the camp will be help indoors.
