Summer Together Time - Monday/Tuesday

Our “Welcome to Explorer” Summer Together Time classes are designed for incoming and current toddlers who will be between 12 months to 24 months by September 1, 2024.

We are offering a NEW Monday/Tuesday option for Summer Together Time! We will explore the new found skills and confidence that toddlers this age are working on during the regular school year, with more focus on outdoor activities, water play, and exploring the big kid's playground on Explorer's campus. Making friends, trying new things, and feeling mastery of skills gives toddlers an opportunity to feel like "Big Kids” and get ready for all the learning to come. Teacher Annie loves seeing the confident  “swagger”  emerge as the children begin to feel more and more in charge of their learning and play. It’s a magical time!

Unfortunately, our Terrific 2's and 3's Camp will not be offered this year, however, we encourage your family to join Teachers Jenell and Rima for lots of fun in the sun in our Multi-age summer camp!

3s-5s Multi-age Camp

Multi-age Summer Camp is now designed for older 2s through 5 years of age. We welcome children currently enrolled at Explorer in the 2's, 3's-5's, and PreK classes for the 2023-2024 school year. Incoming Explorers and children in the community ages 2.5 to 5 years are also welcome to join in the fun! This is a great opportunity to introduce your 2 to 3-year-olds to the big kid's play space for fun in the sun while providing older kids the ability to take a leadership role in cooperative play with the younger kids.

Get excited for Explorer’s multi-age camp! Summer is a great time for our preschoolers to practice gaining greater independence and confidence while also building on their friendship skills. Whether your child loves to get messy painting, dance around to silly songs, or build a tower out of magna-tiles - there will be something for everyone! Children will spend lots of time playing outside with friends and enjoying the magical preschool environment where art, science, literacy and imagination combine to make each day an exciting learning adventure. Enjoy everything Explorer has to offer plus some extra sunshine and water play, new friends, and exciting themed activities.

Two sessions to choose from - sign up for one or take both for a discounted rate!
