Under the Sea (Ages 5-6)

Make a splash at our Under the Sea Pro-D Camp designed especially for 5–6 year olds! 

Budding marine biologists will dive into ocean life through stories and hands-on discovery, then head to the beach for a guided Crab Scavenger Hunt—spotting shells, molts, and different crab species, and even learning how to tell males and females apart. Back at camp, children will create and label their own scientific crab diagrams and share favourite finds from the shore.

Please note, part of this day will be spent at the beach, rain or shine, and we maintain a 1:6 adult-to-child ratio on field trips for safety.

Mini STEAMers (Ages 5-6)

Bring your child for a one-day burst of hands-on creativity at Mini STEAMers Pro-D Camp! Young makers will explore how scientists and engineers think as they imagine, test, and refine their ideas through playful challenges that blend science, technology, engineering, art, and math.

We’ll kick off with chain-reaction marble runs inspired by Rube Goldberg (expect lots of “try again!” moments), then invent and build a custom back-scratcher to solve a real-world problem, and finish by crafting a paper-plate marble maze to take home.

Fairytale Theatre (Ages 5-6)

“Run, run, as fast as you can…” into a joyful day of storytelling, theatre, and making! We’ll bring The Gingerbread Man to life with a lively read-aloud and drama games—kids freeze into tableaux, step into character, and echo the famous line together.

Next, children create a “Missing” poster—tracing and cutting a gingerbread figure, adding googly eyes, buttons, and more, then writing a short description to help “find” our runaway friend.

After lunch, we head to the park for fresh air and play, then return for a hands-on play-dough gingerbread session. Makers roll, decorate, and proudly bag their creations to take home.

Painter’s Pallet (Ages 5-6)

Splash into a full day of colour at our Painter’s Palette Pro-D Camp!

Children explore three inspiring art experiences: a story-led, guided-drawing Chinese Lucky Lion watercolour (with bold oil-pastel fireworks), a dot-painting pointillism winter scene using tempera and Q-tips, and a moonlit owl painting after listening to Owl Moon.

Built-in snack breaks, choice time, and a visit to the park keep the day balanced, creative, and fun. Dress for paint and outdoor play!

Interesting Insects (Ages 5-6)

Bugs are heroes! In this hands-on day, children discover what makes an insect an insect, why pollinators and decomposers matter, and how scientists borrow ideas from buggy bodies to invent new tech (hello, drones!).

We’ll start with a welcoming Soft Start, then dive into a lively read-aloud of “What Is an Insect?” followed by a class Venn diagram and a quick-thinking Insect Roll-and-Cover game. Next, campers engineer their own insect sanctuaries—crafting a viewing window, collecting natural materials, and heading outside on a mini-safari to gently search for local critters (yes, we’ll learn where to find roly-polies!). Later, we meet the many-legged star of the afternoon with The Secret Diary of a Centipede and a kid-friendly fact booklet activity.
