AM Extended Care

$30/Week

Need to get to work early? We understand. By 8am our staff is already hard at work helping our campers make new friends, do arts & crafts projects, play games and plan special activities that relate to our weekly themes.

Drop Off

Be greeted by name…with a high five…by a professional staff member…dressed in a mermaid costume or a Viking hat. In a hurry? Just pull up and we’ll open the door for you. In no rush? Park your car, come right in and shake your counselor’s fin.

Morning Rally

Although we have a strict “No Nuts” food policy, we have also have a strict “Go Nuts” rally policy. You never know what surprises await when staff and kids take the stage for songs, skits, dress up days and ridiculous contests.

Station 1:Science

Let the science “edventure” begin! Step inside the science room and be transported into a world of discovery and exploration. Our rock star Science Instructors are each trained on-site by Edventure More and the California Academy of Sciences. Campers are guided through experiments hand-selected to make mouths drop and excitement rise. Check out our museum partners and weekly themes and you know why we guarantee kids will learn and have fun doing it!

Snack

Active minds lead to hungry bellies! Don’t forget to pack a healthy snack for your camper every morning…with no nuts of course! Remember: If you order a delicious Revolution Foods Lunch, you automatically receive a healthy morning snack!

Station 2: Art Station

Time to start art! Our arts projects complement our science experiments so campers learn a different perspective on the same great theme! Our “state-of-the-art” Art Instructors bring a wealth of teaching experience in addition to on-site training by the Museum of Children’s Art. Each weekly theme features a mix of mediums like collage, painting, sculpture, decoupage and recycled art to keep the creativity flowing!

Lunch

Add Revolution Foods: Only $30/week

Add a delicious and organic Revolution Foods lunch each day. It’s a snap! Just click/check the Revolution Foods box on your enrollment form and a quality lunch will be delivered to camp daily. Your camper doesn’t like the crust? No worry, it’s fully customizable at no extra charge!

Rather pack your own lunch? That’s great. Please just do not bring any products that contain: cashews, almonds, brazil nuts, pine nuts, walnuts or heaven forbid, the “‘Mother of All Nut Allergies”—the peanut. Thanks!

Station 3: Recreation

It’s not camp without outdoor fun & run around time! Except, we put an Edmo twist on our daily Recreation games. We weave in themes of confidence, teamwork, problem solving and leadership so that kids are actually learning about themselves while they play. Imagine that! Some of our favorites include: Leap of Courage, Cooperative Stunts, Group Juggling, Capture the Flag, Wet & Wild Relays, and Disco Dancing Stretches…that’s right, we said “disco.” There’s an art and a science to it!

Station 4: Team Time

Here teams work together on “campy” things like cheers, banners, lanyards, games, skits and other “choice time” activities. It’s a time to really get to know the other kids in your group, your counselor, and build a team identity. Then it’s time to show the whole camp how you rock the Edmo Vibe at AM and PM rally contests every day! But that’s not all! At least once a week, we also lead kids in SMILE projects that encourage anonymous acts of kindness and recognizing others in their group for doing nice things. Curious about SMILE projects?

Afternoon Rally

Did you “Stump the Camp Director”? Did you earn a “Buddy Card” or a “Plus Card”? Do you know what I’m talking about? You will if you’re at the Afternoon Rally! The whole camp comes together to remember all we did that day, show off our team cheers and recognize our friends for all the awesomeness they showed that day.

Pick Up

Again, you can pull up or walk up, whichever you fancy. Either way we’ll make a point to let you know something special about your child’s day in words and writing. Look out for our daily “Tech Specs” sheet detailing what kids learned at camp, what to look forward to tomorrow, and suggested activities, books, websites, museum exhibitions and more fun ways to keep the curiosity going at home!

Parents, don’t miss this chance to be a kid again! Get off early from work and join us for this special hour of family fun activities! Join our rally, play favorite camp games, learn cheers (if your kids haven’t taught you already!), tour the camp classrooms, chat with the instructors, meet the parents of your child’s new friends, watch a special screening of our Animator movies and more!

PM Extended Care

$60/week 3-6:00pm

If you can’t get out of work early or your kids just can’t get enough Edmo, join us for Extended Care! Campers rotate between outdoor games, indoor crafts and extra science projects. You can rest or work easy knowing your kids are in good hands until you pick them up.

More than just tech skills…
We’ll help you develop skills that give you an edge in the world of digital
media art or in any life path you choose. That’s called, “The EdTech Edge.”

Creativity

Create every piece of your media art, whether it’s movie storyboards, video game plots or original graphic designs. We place an equal focus on the process and technique so that your final camp project won’t be your last.

Awareness

Analyze the media that exists in your world. What are the messages others are trying to convey? Are they trying to change the world? Are they trying to change your behavior? Who is their audience? How does it all relate to the message or vision you want to put out in the world?

Collaboration

Experience the process professional teams must go through to get their creations approved, funded and produced. In the real world, it takes a team to make a movie, create a fashion line, design a video game or put on a photo exhibition. In our camp world, it’s no different.

Leadership

Set goals for your team, organize your film crew and settle disputes between actors. You lead the art direction of your video game or photo exhibition and come up with your design company’s mission statement. We help guide you, but it’s your creation. You’re in charge.
