SUMMER PROGRAMS
Infants to Age 2
We offer full day and part-time programs for children beginning at the age of 12 weeks. Children are never too young to begin learning, and our teachers work with parents and HHA's Developmental Standards to create individual plans for each child. Plans are designed to respond to the daily physical needs of each child, and to promote each child's social, cognitive, and emotional development.
Preschool
We have provided exceptional Preschool programming to area children for more than twenty-five years. Our summer program is both educational and endless fun. Your child will spend their day exploring campus, making friends, gardening, creating art, enjoying music and movement, learning about nature, and much more!
School-Age Program
Physical, intellectual, emotional, and social growth form the foundations of Summer on the Farm for School-Age children. Energetic, fun-filled activities are alternated with moderate homeroom activities to enrich the children’s lives and provide memorable camp experiences.
