Give your child the wonder-filled adventure they’ve been waiting for with our Nature Discovery Center nature day camps! Designed for kids ages 5–10, our full-day and weeklong camps build confidence as kids explore the outdoors, meet live animals, and make new friends. Campers dive into exciting topics—from animal behavior and adaptations to plants, habitats, and ecosystems—through interactive lessons, themed games, hands-on discovery, nature play, and creative nature crafts. Half-day mini-camps for kids 4-7 give new campers a bite-sized taste of camp. Every child leaves with a deeper understanding of and respect for the natural world, along with unforgettable memories of time spent exploring our nature park.
