Our School-Age Program

"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.

Campers enjoy themed activities, special visitors, field trips, and so much more.

Our Curriculum Components

“The environment must be rich in motives which lend interest to activity and invite the child to conduct his own experiences.”
-Dr. Maria Montessori

  • Sensorial Children learn skills very effectively through their senses. Specific activities are designed to capitalize on using the senses to learn.
  • Math Mathematical thought process and practice are woven into summer activities to help children explore math as it relates to multiple areas in fun and interesting ways.
  • Language All our explorations and activities encourage growth in oral language, written expression, reading, and grammar elements, weaving all the components into the summer themes.
  • Garden Lessons in the outdoors help children develop an understanding and appreciation for the complexity and interdependence of our living world. Children develop the skills of exploration, observation, experimentation, and conservation.
  • Culture Cultural exercises in our summer camp programs include special visitors, in-depth studies, and hands-on activities related to the world around us, including other countries and cultures, the natural world, different languages, and foods.

Learning at Home

Birthday Tree

You Will Need:

Small tree in pot or burlap, shovel, measuring tape, journal or notebook, camera

Directions:

On your child’s birthday, plant a tree. Create a “My Tree” journal. Measure how tall your child and the tree are. Write the measurements and date in the journal. Take a picture of your child beside the tree. Add this to the journal. Repeat this each year on your child’s birthday.

Tip:

You can show your child two or three types of trees that grow quickly, like Willows, Sycamores, or Tulip Poplar trees, but let her make the final choice, if possible. Research varieties at www.treelink.org or ask your local nursery for suggestions and planting instructions. Give your child a watering can, along with the responsibility of watering the tree whenever it needs it.  Before planting the tree, point out its root system when you loosen the burlap or take it out of the pot. Once you dig the hole, talk about any fertilizer (food) or compost that you add. Give your child a watering can, along with the responsibility of watering the tree whenever it needs it. Let her decorate the front of the journal. She can draw pictures of the tree throughout the year, especially showing its changes through the seasons. Press leaves to add.
