Half-day program for younger students who are looking for a smaller, cozier group and a shorter schedule.

 

This program is a wonderful introduction to Montessori preschool life, and is ideal for young children who are transitioning from a toddler program to a preschool program in fall of 2023, either here at BHMS or at another school. This warm and friendly program offers a sampling of the Montessori Early Childhood experience, as well as a wonderful place to meet new friends and new teachers. Designed specifically with the needs of three-year-olds and young fours in mind, activities encompass many of the materials and works that are found year-round in the Montessori preschool classroom. However, the particular focus of the summer is on social development, care-of-self skills, and art activities, as well as a curricular theme for each session (stay tuned for this year's themes!). There is also group singing, movement, and, of course, plenty of outdoor activity on the rooftop playground. This program is the perfect place for new preschoolers to spend cool, happy mornings.

 

Campers should be toilet-trained and in underwear (occasional accidents are ok!). Maximum group size of 12 campers per session.

Full-day program for children who are accustomed to having mornings and afternoons away from home.

 

Our Full-Day program is for children aged 3.5 to 6.5 years old and offers an engaging, vibrant, and fun Montessori experience full of play, projects, social learning, and, for older and returning campers, practice with leadership and role-modeling. Full-day campers can look forward to lots of projects-- including service projects that they choose, design, and participate in. Our older students (aged 5+) can look forward to afternoon "Power Hours" that are specifically project-oriented in nature. As always, the particular focus of the summer is on social development, care-of-self skills and art activities, as well as a curricular theme for each session (stay tuned for this year's themes!).There is also group singing, movement, and, of course, plenty of outdoor activity on the rooftop playground.

 

Campers bring their own lunches and are welcome to enjoy their own snacks or snacks that we provide. Full-day campers should be toilet-trained and in underwear (occasional accidents are ok!). Maximum group size of 20 campers at a time.
