Camp Zoofari Sensory
July 1, 2, 3 ; 9 a.m - 4 p.m.
Can you hear as well as a bat or see as good as a jaguar? Campers will discover the five senses with us as we explore the zoo and learn how animals’ senses help them survive!
As the traditional day camp environment may be overstimulating for some campers, our Sensory Safari camp will occur for only three consecutive days with half day (morning) attendance. Our camp activities will be conducted in a way to provide opportunities for our campers to engage with the zoo environment in a variety of methods while keeping sensory needs in mind.
However, to ensure safe and successful participation in the program, campers must be able to attend camp without an individual adult caregiver, stay with the group for the duration of the camp day, and must adhere to camp rules and agreements whether or not they have accommodations. This includes, but is not limited to, remaining with the group while not engaging in aggressive or self-injurious behaviors. If your child cannot safely and successfully participate in the program, even with accommodations in place, they may not be ready for camp at the zoo.
Children ages 6-10 and in grades k-6 may enroll.
Register your camper for one or more days.
Camp runs 9 a.m.- 12 p.m. Morning drop off is 8:45-9:00 a.m. Afternoon pickup is 11:45 a.m. -12 p.m. Extended care is not available.
Regular Rate: $45 / day
