HOLIDAY CAMP AT HOME - Grades PreK-2

  (Links to all activities are below)


  • These at-home camp activities have been created to help our kids continue learning over the school breaks while still having fun. Each day of activities will keep them busy for a few hours. 
  • Choose ONE link from each category each day - Just ONE read aloud, ONE song, ONE video, ONE craft, and ONE writing prompt. 
  • Start each day with a Writing Journal. Kids should respond to the prompt in their own words. Do NOT worry about their spelling. Add pictures! 
  • Allow kids to work their way through the Books, Songs, and Videos at their own pace. They should access only ONE of each per day.
  • Please help them complete a craft each day. Each requires minimal supplies.
