SUMMER ADVENTURE!
ummer camps have been a staple
of Little House Learning Center for
10 of the 12 years they’ve been in
business and this summer’s programming
is going to be bigger and better than ever.
“Our summer camp program is
intended to provide an active, exciting, tech-free summer full of
adventures for kids” Co-owner Jennifer Osterman said. “It’s a way
for them to engage with friends and do activities to keep their
minds and bodies on the go throughout summer. We offer camps
that are sure to excite the sports
enthusiast, the game show
inclined and even the baking
novice in your child! ”
Parents have their choice of
various week long camps to
participate in. Each camp runs
from Monday thru Friday with an
option to enroll for three to five
days each any week. With campers
from Kindergarten through
5th grade enrolled, the camp counselors work to group campers
together based on age as well as provide the oldest campers with
junior counselor rights and responsibilities. Twice weekly, Tuesday
and Thursday, campers will be taking field trips to places of interest
to keep campers on their toes and fill each day with excitement
and fun. Camp Little House offers a balance of games and FUN with
outdoor time, canoeing, fishing, activities and lots of SUN!
Returning this year after enjoying high demand and spectacular
success with campers are Clue Camp, Nerf Battle Camp, and
Olympics 2019 with a twist.
Clue Camp is like living out the popular board game, where
campers work as a team to figure out whodunnit. Nerf Battle -
hugely popular with all kids of all ages - encouraging competing
campers to gain points and practice their skills through challenges
and obstacles. Campers can bring their own nerf guns and archery
equipment, or use those provided on site.
New this year are DIY Design and A.R.T. Art. In these camps,
kids will do everything from repurposing old items into new ones,
modeling clay sculptures, building with
hardware, to throwing paint balloons, and
creating with a variety of mediums. Your
art-inclined camper will love these weeks!
Little House Double Dare Camp is a new
and exciting addition to camp - based on
the mess-tacular Nickelodeon game show. Little House Double Dare
will have campers diving in vats of spaghetti to find flags and picking
a giant nose filled with whipped cream. Activities and competitions
change daily, but the odds of getting slimed are always high with
plenty of chances to get messy.
All Sorts of Science combines as much science as possible into a
week with chemistry, physics, astronomy and more. From bubbling
experiments to blowing things up outright, from slime creations
to building simple machines; the campers will explore chemical
changes, create exothermic reactions and learn to build and use
simple machines in all sorts of science.
Lastly, with the enthusiasm seen during last year’s Cupcake Wars
Camp, Little House has split that camp into two new ones - Sweet
Treats and Pizza Parlor. Kids will experience two separate weeks
based on making and cooking food, creating candy pops, chocolate
pops, slinging dough and creating recipes for the most delicious
breakfast pizzas.
“Summer should be a time of fun and friends.” Osterman said. “Our
Camp provides opportunities to fill summer with tech-free fun, you
bring the friends! After-all, that’s what summer is all about!”
If any or all of these camps sound like something your child would
love to participate in this summer, registration is already underway
and runs through May 1. While there are plenty of slots, registering
as early as possible is the only way to
guarantee your child has a chance to
experience the unique camps that only
Little House has to offer!
