- Are you wondering if your 3 year old child is ready for Farm Camp? Use the following questions to determine if your child is ready to become a Farmer-in-Training!
-
- Can the child listen to an adult and follow directions in a large group setting? (We are an operational Farm, and we need to ensure that our campers are safe when navigating spaces as there may be farm equipment, farmers, and more also operating in our educational spaces).
- Is the child potty trained and able to wipe themselves? Can they use a public restroom? (We understand that accidents happen amongst our littles but want to ensure your child can use the bathroom independently).
- Does the child attend a structured preschool program? If so, is it more than 4 hours? Our program runs from 9am-3pm. We highly discourage campers getting picked up before 3pm.
- Is the child able to be outdoors for 6 consecutive hours? (Camp operates entirely outdoors. Our youngest friends often are tired and have a hard time continuing to participate in activities. If after a couple of days, we determine that it’s not a good fit, no refund will be offered).
