Summer Camp · Redbud Montessori, Davis, California

Seven weeks of summer, under the trees.

Ages 2½–6. Open to everyone, whether or not your child goes to Redbud during the year.

what it is

The same place, a little looser.

Camp runs on the same six and a half acres, with many of the same teachers, in the same rooms — but the school year's rhythm gives way to something a little simpler.

The Montessori materials go away for the summer, and what comes out is art and craft projects, games, and long stretches of time outside. Every summer has a theme, and it runs through everything — bugs and insects one year, the ocean the next, dinosaurs the year after that.

The shape of the day stays familiar, so children who attend Redbud during the year settle right in. Children who don't tend to by the second morning.

Two cartoon snowmen made of brown circles, one larger and one smaller, with two stick arms each, set against a white background.

Muck and Goo

Child pouring sand into a large container with a smaller, pink sand sifter in a sandy outdoor area.

Every Friday is Muck and Goo day. The giant sandbox gets filled with water, the children arrive in swimsuits, and the rest is about as messy and fun as you'd imagine. It's what they look forward to all week.
