Great Explorations 2025 Summer Camp

1925 4th Street North, St. Petersburg, FL, USA
This indoor camp is designed for children entering kindergarten through second grade, providing a structured and engaging environment.
This engaging and enriching indoor camp is designed specifically for children entering kindergarten through entering second grade. Our program provides a safe, fun, and stimulating environment where young campers can explore, create, and learn through a variety of hands-on activities. Each week, campers will enjoy exciting field trips that provide new experiences and opportunities for discovery. Our daily schedule includes arts and crafts projects that foster creativity, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) activities that encourage problem-solving and critical thinking, and interactive play that promotes social development. Weather permitting, we also take advantage of the great outdoors with dedicated park days, allowing campers to enjoy fresh air, physical activity, and unstructured playtime. With a balance of structured learning and free exploration, this camp is the perfect place for young children to build friendships, gain confidence, and make lasting memories.
