Allow us to answer 7 of the most commonly asked questions about summer camp in Miami.

1. Does your summer camp offer educational programs?

Yes! Every single one of our camp programs offers the opportunity for children to learn something new. We operate numerous programs throughout the summer meant to provide a fun and educational experience. For instance, our Science Of The Sea Camp is geared to kids between 5 and 13-years-old, and offers the opportunity to learn firsthand all about the ocean and the creatures that call it home.

Another example is our full-immersion Spanish Camp, which helps expose campers to another language. Researchers have found countless benefits to bilingual children, so why not give your child the opportunity to learn Spanish? Certified fluent Spanish speaking teachers work with campers through a wide variety of activities, songs and games to enrich their language capacity.

These are only 2 examples of our many educational camping opportunities. Be sure to check them all out to see which your child is most interested in.

4. What sort of physical exams do children require before attending the summer camp in Miami?

Campers under 6-years-old must have a recent (within the last year) physician signed copy of Certificate of Good Health (HRS Form 3040), Florida Certificate of Immunization, and a TB test.

If your child is from outside of the US, the physical must be performed and signed off by a licensed physician operating in the US. When you go in for your child’s physical, bring a copy of his or her immunization records from your country of origin so that these records can be transferred.

5. What are your normal camp hours?

Normal day camp hours are between 9:15 and 3:30. We offer additional morning care starting at 8 am, and extended after-hours care until 6 pm.

6. What if my child suffers certain allergies?

Many children suffer from some sort of allergy, be it food related or otherwise. If your child has any known allergies you should speak with the Camp Director regarding his or her specific needs. You will also fill out this information on your Registration Form.

7. How are emergencies handled?

In the instance something goes wrong, our staff is fully prepared and trained to react in an appropriate and timely manner. Staff handles cuts, insect bites and other minor issues. For more serious issues, EMS (located only 3-miles away) will be contacted immediately.
