Goddard's School-Age Summer Camp is the Best Way to Spend the Summer

5 reasons families and kids love School-Age Summer Camp at The Goddard School at Legacy Campus

May 8, 2025

Summer is right around the corner, and if you’re a parent wondering how to keep your child both entertained and engaged, our School-Age Summer Camp at Legacy Campus has you covered! Trust us — there’s nothing quite like seeing your child come home tired, happy, and full of new stories (and possibly a new friendship bracelet or two).


ENROLL TODAY!


Here’s why families (and kids!) love our program:

1. Weekly Themes That Keep Things Fresh
From “Science Explorers” to “Art Around the World,” our rotating weekly themes make sure no two weeks feel the same. Your child might be building a robot one week and painting a masterpiece the next!

2. Learning Disguised as Fun
Math, science, literacy, and S.T.E.A.M activities are woven seamlessly into our days. Kids are learning without even realizing it — because when you’re racing to build the tallest spaghetti tower, who has time to think about fractions?

3. Sports, Fitness, and Outdoor Fun
We believe in the power of play! Every day includes movement games, fitness challenges, and outdoor adventures that will leave kids rosy-cheeked and ready for a good night's sleep (you’re welcome, parents).

4. Projects They’ll Talk About All Year
Think volcano experiments, Lego challenges, and team scavenger hunts. One parent told us her son still talks about the summer when he engineered a marshmallow catapult. (Not to brag, but it flew 14 feet.)

5. Flexible, Full-Day Care
We run from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM, giving parents peace of mind that their child is safe, happy, and busy all day long. Whether you're working, running errands, or finally taking a moment for yourself, we've got you covered.

A note from one Goddard family:
"Last summer, my daughter came home every day with paint-stained hands, a huge smile, and a million stories about “the best day ever.” She can’t wait for this year — and honestly, neither can I."

If you’re ready to give your child a summer to remember, reach out to us today! Spots fill up faster than a water balloon fight on a hot day!

Hi, I’m Liz! I’m thrilled to be leading this year’s School-Age Summer Program for The Goddard School at Legacy Campus. At Goddard, we believe in nurturing each child’s natural curiosity through hands-on learning, exploration, and play — and that’s exactly what I’m excited to bring to our summer camp.

Summer is the perfect time for children to try new things, discover hidden talents, and build lasting friendships. I’m passionate about creating an environment where kids feel confident to take risks, be creative, and most importantly — have fun!
