Ahoy, me mateys! Where shall we sail to today? Maybe we’ll voyage to Mermaid Island with Pirate Pete or sail across the seven seas! Learn how to talk like a pirate, swim like a mermaid, and dive into the ocean as we develop our problem-solving skills and a keen eye for hidden treasure. Using our favorite pirate, mermaid, and ocean stories, students make connections between imaginative worlds and their own life experiences. Students bring stories to life–or create their own–using dramatic play. Activities are designed to encourage creative expression while promoting confidence and self-esteem. Grab your telescope and get ready for an ocean adventure! 

A typical day at camp begins with a full group welcome and warm up, followed by themed free-play stations, a creative drama activity, a snack and movement break (snack is brought from home), visual art, and an exploratory musical moment before heading to lunch and recess. The afternoon provides more time to engage in themed play stations, a drama or music workshop with special guest instructors, an interactive story activity, and a final group closing featuring silly songs, skits, and camper spotlights. At the end of the session, campers show off their newly sharpened theatre arts skills in an informal sharing for friends and family.

Campers provide their own nut-free lunch and snacks. 

Ocean Explorers is held off site at our neighborhood partner: The Primrose School of Downtown Bethesda, located one block from Imagination Stage (8101 Glenbrook Rd, Bethesda). 

After-care is available from 4:00-6:00 p.m. at Imagination Stage. After-care campers walk with the Camp Manager from Primrose to Imagination Stage.
