K-Camp

Guitar Tree climbing

K-Camp is a nature-based learning experience for children entering kindergarten. This camp provides long periods of uninterrupted time outdoors in rigorous play and includes daily walking field trips throughout Vanderbilt University’s beautiful arboretum. Children enter kindergarten more confident to speak-up, manage their stuff, work collaboratively, and problem-solve with peers.
