Transitional Kindergarten & Kindergarten Camps

During frequent visits to the Fort Baker beach, campers will conduct scientific investigations and observe animal behavior. They’ll dive deep into local marine life, and examine the flora and fauna supported by the ocean. A visit to our local Coast Guard station is a special opportunity to learn more!

We’re taking budding artists out of the studio and into the outdoors! Our Fort Baker location provides a wealth of inspiration for campers to tap into. Campers will go on hikes and explore by the beach, then create artwork that reflects what they see, feel, and experience in the natural world.

Tools, tinkering, and tech, oh my! In this introduction to making and tinkering, young makers will explore different types of tools—from hammers and wrenches to laser cutters and 3D printers—to explore how they work and what they do. After a visit to BADM’s new Try it Studio, campers will use what they’ve learned to create inventions of their own.

Science is magical, if you know what to look for! Campers will explore chemical reactions and properties of matter so they can better notice the fascinating moments of everyday chemistry that happen all around us! They’ll use scientific tools to form hypotheses, conduct experiments, and draw conclusions from the evidence they uncover.

We’re giving your child permission to get messy, all in the name of artistic expression. Campers will explore the world around them in a hands-on way through sensory art activities like finger painting, sculptures, murals, and more. Clean-up is on us!
