Summer will soon be here, and excitement is rising for summer camp! The Rose Garden will again offer an exquisite summer experience for your child. Days spent under the green umbrella of this old, well-loved forest are treasures our children carry for a lifetime. Our daily rhythm is a joyful open schedule, which breathes slowly and deeply with the children:
9:00 Say hello, yawn, build a sandcastle, swing, play rainforest, paint, color a summer picture, sing and dance
11:00 Snack (I provide comfort food: sweet grains and berry tea)
11:30 Go to the stream, catch minnows in a net, try to catch frogs in your hand, collect pebbles, splash, make a fairy hut
1:00 Lunch (you pack a basket lunch, and a love note, too!)
1:45 Rest time with chapter stories
3:00 Pick up time. Go home happy and content!
Here are details to remember:
Please pack:
-Lunch, with lots to drink
-Snack for the car ride home
-Please dress your child with bathing suits (two-piece for girls, please) underneath their -Simple clothes that they can manage alone
-And a layer of sunblock and natural insect repellant
The Rose Garden Summer Program offers a new feature this year, something many of you have been wishing for. How many mornings have you wistfully said, as you dropped your child off, “I wish I could stay too!”? This year you can! At the Rose Garden Family Camp! See the next webpage for more info.
