weekly themes

Child Feeding Calf

Week 1: Farm Life: 6/16-6/20

HMS had a farm, E-I-E-I-O! With some campers here and some campers there, come on down to the farm and join us as we explore farmyard life—from the tools and machines found on the farm to the animals that roam!

Silhouette of Elephant

Week 2: Down in the Jungle: 6/23-6/27

“Down in the jungle, if you look over there, a great big lion is washing his hair.” Jump into the jungle with us as we search for animals in their natural habitats! During our expedition, we’ll create crafts, engage in role-play, and conduct exciting experiments. Let’s go wild!

Golden Fireworks Display

Week 3: Stars & Stripes: 6/30-7/3 (no camp on July 4th)

Join us in tallying the stars and stripes as we guide America on another orbit around the sun, the Montessori way. Campers will illuminate the week by crafting dazzling fireworks that promise to illuminate the night sky!

Astronaut Helmet

Week 4: Out of this World: 7/7-7/11

3, 2, 1... blast off! Campers will rocket into outer space as they become astronauts exploring the stars and planets of our Solar System. Along the way, we’ll enjoy edible creations, hands-on projects, and fascinating observations. This is a session you won’t want to miss!

Human-Robot Friendship

Week 5: Robots, Robots: 7/14-7/18

This multi-sensory theme will captivate even the youngest campers as they "iron out the nuts and bolts" of building a real-life robot while exploring the science of living and non-living things. It’s a theme that’s sure to be a big hit!

Pirate Flag

Week 6: Pirates and Mermaids: 7/21-7/25

Ahoy, pirates and mermaids! Join our Captain and the HMS crew as we sail the seven seas searching for gold coins and mermaid tails. We’ll learn to talk and dance like pirates, swim like mermaids, and get a little messy with magical slime.

Circus performance

Week 7: Circus: 7/28-8/1

Ladies and gentlemen, children of all ages, welcome to the greatest show on Earth! Come learn how to roar like a lion and walk a tightrope as each camper puts their ringmaster skills to the test.

Camping

Week 8: Let's Go Camping: 8/4-8/8

Pack your bags and get ready as we explore the great outdoors! From pitching a tent and making s’mores around the “campfire”, to creating our binoculars for an imaginative bear hunt, we will dig in and get our hands dirty (and wet!) as we learn about country life!

Magnifying Glass

Week 9: Detectives: 8/11-8/15

Attention, all detectives: We need your help to solve a series of mysteries at HMS. Our campers will test their skills as they complete their training program full of obstacle courses, coding activities, and invisible ink. Put your best foot forward as we unlock the secrets hidden on Washington Street together.

Music Sheets

Week 10: Music and Movement: 8/18-8/22

Children will rock and roll their way into the last week of camp by creating musical instruments from simple household items and moving and grooving their way along balance beams, tunnels, and obstacle courses. Dancing to music helps children build motor skills while allowing them to practice self-expression.

we'd love to show you how to set up your
child for a lifetime of learning.
