    School-Age Summer Camp

    "The land is where our roots are. The children must be taught to feel and live in harmony with the Earth." -Dr. Maria Montessori

    We offer a dynamic summer camp program for children ages 6-12. Our camp provides children with fun opportunities to explore, create, and enjoy the wonders of the season. Each weekly session provides a unique thematic program so children can experience a variety of topics in depth. Learning at Bright Horizons is a journey of discovery, investigation, experimentation, and collaboration. Read More

What Parents are Saying

Our greatest advocates are our families.

"My two children have different strengths yet each gained an excellent sense of learning enjoyment and respect for others at Bright Horizons. My gratitude goes to the committed teachers who make the school the best in the area."

Learning at Home

Prediction

You Will Need:

Objects to experiment with (rocks, feathers, paper, bread, plastic toys, etc.) and a clear container of water large enough for the objects to fit in

Directions:

Set up one or more clear bins filled with water. Help your child find items to experiments with. Talk about what “predict” means and ask your child to predict which items will sink and which items will float. Have him put the items in the water and observe. Ask things like, “What do you see happening?” and “Why do you think that’s happening?”

Tip:

Find some items that have surprising results, like a jar with an airtight lid on – it seems like it should sink, but it floats.
