"Quite literally the BEST summer camps on PEI!" - L.P.
"I wanted to say (my daughter) absolutely had the time of her life there this week!" - J.C.
"You know it is a good day when the kids don’t want to leave at pick up time without showing all kinds of things... Thanks for being a bright spot for kids outside. The piggy bank is most delightful." - J.R.
Welcome to Farm Animal Camp! Your child's days will be filled with: caring for, and getting to know, our farm animals - their needs and unique personalities; animal and nature-based games that expand our awareness and understanding of the natural world and the challenges facing our environment; activities that foster kindness, compassion and community; personal and group challenges to build self-confidence and team spirit; storytelling and crafts, nature exploration and so much more!
Farm camps have weekly themes - even the weeks that share the same theme will include different games and activities so NO TWO CAMPS ARE EXACTLY ALIKE and kids can keep coming back week after week for more farm fun!
AGES 5 and up! Farm Camp runs 8:30 am to 4:30 pm.
Early drop off is from 7:30 am and late pick up to 5 pm AT NO ADDITIONAL COST!
(Note: After 5 p.m the cost is $1 per minute/per child, paid directly to the camp leader who stayed late to watch the child/children).
School's Out Celebration! - Join us for a fun filled TWO DAYS as we celebrate the end of another school year!
We will spend the days meeting and caring for the animals, exploring the farm, dusting off all of our most popular games, exercises and activities and perhaps we will even reveal a few new ones for 2024!
- NOTE: This is our only TWO day Farm Animal Camp - cost $100 + HST = $115 - when registering, please scroll down to OTHER camps to register - do not click box at top of registration :) !
