Summer Nature Camp

Fun with friends reconnecting with nature

​​

Spending a week at Coyote Nature School Day Camp is more than just a way to occupy your child during summer vacation, it is a way to unplug from the electronic world and engage with nature in a deeper way. Summer nature camps are unique opportunities for children to have fun and meet new friends. Groups are kept small in size (12-14 children) with experienced teachers or outdoor educators directly facilitating each session. The supervision ratio is 1 adult: 7 children which provides ideal guidance and support while allowing for robust play.

 

Join us in our idyllic locations in the village of Harrington and at Stoneridge Farm where your child will actively learn and explore in a diverse, yet safe natural setting. Exciting discoveries are made with ‘hands dirty’ exploration, building activities, wandering and wading around the waterways. The day may include a visit to the library in Harrington, handling of farm animals at Stoneridge Farm, crafts, hiking, songs, and netting crayfish in the pond or creek. The historic grist mill and heritage barn are perfect places for quiet stories, sketching or making reflective art. Sharing our adventures at closing builds a sense of community and excitement for the next day together.
