Cubs
An early childhood summer program for children ages 4 and 5
Introduction
Cubs experience summer at eye level. Every minute of their SummerWorks time is designed to nurture budding curiosities in a safe and supportive environment. At the core of our early childhood program is a fantastic staff hired specifically to work with our youngest campers.
While at SummerWorks, our youngest campers follow their curiosities through various interests in physical activity, art and creative expression, and outdoor adventures. SummerWorks also helps encourage our youngest campers to build confidence by trying new activities in a safe, supportive environment, and develop a sense of personal responsibility through healthy habits.
Cubs Expectations
In order for your child to have a successful experience at camp, they ​must be able to:
- Feel comfortable in large groups and large, unfamiliar spaces
- Socialize with kids their age (prior experience with this is a must)
- Verbally communicate their basic needs and problem-solve with adults and peers
- Be flexible and able to cope with daily transitions
- Sit in a circle and listen for a maximum of 10 minutes
- Change in and out of clothing with little to no help
- Sit and feed themselves
- Use the potty and wipe by themselves, with the ability to ask for help if needed
- Feel comfortable around water or be open to taking healthy risks
Weekly Activities
