MY FIRST DAY CAMP

2026 theme: Discover your neighbourhood!

A camp that meets kids on their level, designed specifically for those aged 4–6 who might be experiencing camp for the first time.

 

 

The Local familial's day camp is a gentle introduction to camps for children aged 4-6.

 

Our young participants will discover their neighbourhood by exploring the park, observing nature in the city, gardening, decorating a lane, and meeting neighbours and local partners.

 

This active, creative camp is designed to meet kids on their level in the welcoming atmosphere of the Local Familial!
