Plymouth Day Camp is the perfect place for your young camper! Because we specialize in early childhood education, we understand what makes young campers happy campers. The focus of our summer is on giving each child the opportunity to make friends, learn self-help skills, and have lots of fun. Plymouth’s experienced staff of trained early childhood professionals takes special care in guiding each child through the age-appropriate steps of gaining independence and building confidence.
New this year is a specially crafted program to help our youngest children as they transition into preschool camp. Joining our already successful Toddler Program for ages 22-29 months is the Separation Program for ages 30-35 months. When combined with our Preschooler Program, Plymouth Day Camp is able to offer every young camper the best possible camp experience at just the right age. Registration is still open!

Our Camp Programs, from Toddler to Preschooler
Toddler Program
(age 22 – 29 months) Our Toddler Program offers our youngest campers a taste of camp. During the twice a week, 75-minute class, the children and their caregivers have playtime in the classroom, art projects, circle time and snack. On one day the children will have time on the playground and in the sandbox. On the other day they’ll use the sprinklers and outdoor water table. We offer four sessions: (A) Mon & Wed 9:15-10:30, (B) Mon & Wed 10:45-12:00, (C) Tues & Thurs 9:15-10:30, and (D) Tues & Thurs 10:45-12:00. This class is led by an experienced early childhood professional. Registration is for the full 12-class session only. Children may be registered for more than one session (please note that activities will repeat).
Separation Program
(age 30 months - 35 months) Our Separation Program was designed to create a smooth transition between the Toddler Program and drop-off Preschooler Camp. This Monday through Friday, 2 ½ – hour class offers an interactive experience for parents and children while working toward a gentle separation. Camp begins with a parent or caregiver in the room with the child. As he or she gains familiarity and a sense of trust with the staff, the routine and other children, the child is helped to separate. Each child reaches this goal at his or her own pace. In the Separation Program, campers enjoy playtime in their classroom, movement, circle time, art, story time, snack and both outdoor and indoor gross motor play on our playground and in our gym. On warm days, the children play outdoors with sprinklers and a water table. This class is led by an experienced early childhood professional. Registration is for the full 6-week session only. Preschooler Program
(age 3.0-entering Kindergarten) Our Preschooler Program is the perfect place for your child’s first drop-off camp experience! Our intimate and nurturing program lets children enjoy what’s best about summer. The facilities include a large outdoor playground with sandbox, jungle gym, and warm-weather water play. Children have the opportunity to swim in our exceptionally well-staffed pool. They will learn how to stay safe in the water, as well as gaining some basic skills for beginning to swim on their own. Our campers can experiment with music, crafts, karate, gymnastics, sports and much more. The preschoolers bring in their own lunch for a shared lunchtime. On Tuesdays, campers wear their red camp t-shirts for special and exciting activities. Last summer we had visits from a storyteller, petting zoo and chef as well as an all-camp carnival. This summer promises to bring even more fun!
