Summer Day Camp Program Grades K-6
Narberth & Rosemont College, Chestnut Hill and Center City
Campers spend their time moving between creative activities such as knitting, crocheting, embroidery, machine sewing and crafts. Regardless of your child's age or skill level, our staff teaches to each individual child's needs.
During the week, your child will come home with several finished projects. Whether it is a knitted finger puppet, a hand sewn game board or a machine-sewn backpack each child will feel immense pride in the completed items. They will also have fun crafting with projects like Kool-aid dyed yarns, no sew fleece pillows, felted wool and decorated flip flops.
Our staff is comprised of professional artists, instructors and skilled teachers, dedicated to making your child feel special. Our teaching philosophy is one that focuses on the child's accomplishments. We know that skill comes with age and motivation. We will never criticize your child's work but praise their efforts.
