Adventure Summer Day Camp
Have your child join our professional naturalists for outdoor adventures that spark their curiosity, make memories and lead to personal discovery.
Monthly Programs
Little Wonders
Nature discovery program for 2 and 3 year olds to share with their favorite adult
Each session includes outside exploring time, songs, stories, art and a snack-all relating to a simple, nature subject. Little Wonders is designed to be a gentle introduction to group learning, with lots of opportunities for free choice, play and interactions with other children.
NatureNauts
Fun-filled nature program designed for 4 to 6 year olds and their favorite adult
Like astronauts who explore space, NatureNauts explore the natural world of their own back yard. Each month’s theme is designed to give youngsters a positive introduction to our wonderful natural world. Sessions include stories, games, activities, songs, an outdoor experience, a take home craft, and a keepsake photo.
Pop-Up Nature
Want to explore nature with your children but don’t know how to get started? Stop in for a “pop-up” program with a nature expert to get your adventure on! There will be a naturalist led activity at each session from 1-1:30, followed by self-guided activities you can enjoy with your family at your own pace. We provide the tools and know how, you supply the curiosity. Each program has a different theme, so make plans to join us all year!
Critter Programs
Nature Wizard for Families
Friends of Wehr members at the family level or higher can join a naturalist for a free, monthly themed discovery walk along Wehr’s trails.
Fireside Fridays
A series of evening nature discovery programs for families. Enjoy a twilight walk and then share a campfire dessert by the fire pit.
Geology and the World of Wehrcraft Daycamp
Children become geologists as we build models of rocks and minerals with Legos, and make our own fossils. We'll play a no-tech, outdoor version of Minecraft to earn real geological treasures!
