Creature Camp
Creature campers will explore the garden, forests, and creeks to learn about animals and bugs. They will develop skills in identifying animal tracks, try birding to spot local species, and learn how to help our local wildlife. It’s a hands-on week of discovery and learning about the diverse life thriving in and around Toronto Botanical Garden.
Nature Quest Camp
Join us for an exciting week of exploration and discovery at Nature Quest Camp! Campers will solve puzzles, follow clues, and explore gardens, creeks and forest trails. Each day brings new challenges, hands-on activities, and treasures to uncover. With each puzzle solved, campers will collect clues and tools that connect together for a grand finale adventure! With teamwork, exploration, and plenty of time to run, play and discover, this camp promises an unforgettable summer adventure.
Magical Adventure Camp
Have you ever thought the forest was full of magic? During this fantastical week, campers will learn some nature potions, create stories about magical creatures and make their own wand and end the week with an all-camp magical challenge.
Wilderness Camp
Wilderness is all around us! During this adventurous week, campers will learn how to safely make a fire, build a forest shelter and learn about the uses of different plants in the Wilket Creek ravine.
Celebrate Summer Camp
Celebrate Summer Camp is a week packed with classic summer games and the pure joy of being a kid in the sunshine. Campers will enjoy traditional games, building friendships, and creating memories. Cap off the week with our “Celebrate Summer Party” – the perfect way to close out a week filled with the simple pleasures of summer!
