Hike, Craft and Play: A Waldorf Summer

Join us this summer, June 24 - August 2

Staffed by our experienced early childhood teachers,
Summer Camp at Marin Waldorf School is a magical six weeks of imagination, play, and lots of outdoor time for children ages 3.5 to 6 years old

Summer Camp at Marin Waldorf School is based on the tenets of Waldorf early childhood education, incorporating ample outdoor activities and free play with a gentle daily rhythm. Throughout the summer, we hike, craft, cook, sing, and play together. Our cozy and inviting early childhood classrooms are available to us—each equipped with a kitchen and children’s bathrooms—but we spend most of the day outdoors, enjoying the sunny days in the shade of our old oak trees, or hiking to the nearby creek or into the open space near campus. We share a homemade organic snack each day.

We welcome children ages 3.5 to 6 years old.

Please note: children must have previous experience in a preschool setting before attending camp.
