Bear Trek, Grades PPK-PK
Bear Trek is a preschool program that fosters the inventive spirit in our youngest campers. Channeling natural curiosity with fun, innovative curricula, this program provides a strong foundation for lifelong STEM learning.
Here's what an action-packed day looks like with Bear Trek Invention Playground
A.M. Base Camp
Drop off your camper with their teacher, and they'll start each day with games that encourage socialization, motor skill development, and creativity.
Morning Activity
Campers will discover the week's theme through various activities that spark the child's curiosity. We will keep your child active, engaged and promote their creative thinking.
Games, Lunch & Quiet Time
Half of the campers head outside to play while others eat their lunch. Then they switch! Afterward, they will have quiet time (nap or quiet activity) to recharge.
Afternoon Activities
A period for other activities such as arts, dance, sports, games, water activities, pool visits, and much more fun!
P.M. Base Camp
The day wraps up as campers wind down with playground invention games. When you sign out your camper, they'll tell you just how much fun they had at Invention Playground!
