Summer Camp at the Children's Garden 2021

Nature fun awaits you at our Summer Camp! There is a new adventure everyday and the wonders of Mother Nature to explore! We encourage your child's Imagination, we foster creativity and we allow for Make-Believe!
So Join Us for Four Cool Camp Weeks for 5-12 year Old at The Children's Garden!!

Important Information

Children must be 5 years old to be able to be dropped off for camp please! We need a minimum of 6 children to be enrolled each week for camp. Our camp runs Monday-Friday starting at 10:00 AM with pick-up time at 2:00 PM!

Cost for camp runs $150.00+tax for non-members and $135.00+tax for garden members. We do discounts for siblings in the same family or if you book a second week. We always donate $10.00 for each enrolled camper to Make-A-Wish Foundation of Sarasota County. It is our way of helping grant wishes to those special children who need them!

Arts & Crafts, education, storytelling, dress-up & creative play are all incorporated in our camp days and the best part is that we are out in nature getting our hands dirty . Play clothes and tennis shoes are highly advised as we play a lot. Pack a healthy lunch with extra water as we get thirsty. Please apply sunscreen and bug spray before camp. Best to wear long loose fitting pants!
