Coastal Kiddos
Summer Camps
Coastal Kiddos is an after school outdoor education and recreation program. We use games, activities, and lessons to teach children about the natural world. Our camp rotates locations and activities each meeting, so every session is something new.
From the beaches to the chaparral and everything in between, Coastal Kiddos covers all the different ecosystems in the San Diego area. We will teach your children how to be more aware of the world around them and how to find joy in nature. Of course, whenever you are in nature safety is the most important priority. We will teach them things to stray away from, how to be conscious of their surroundings, and what to do if they find themselves in a sticky situation.
We aim to convey these lessons through games and activities, such as learning bird language, exploring tide pools, identifying plants and animals, and playing and exploring in nature.
Our summer camp programs offers camps that run weekly all summer from June 5th- August 25. We have a 9-2pm and 12-5pm slot each week, each theme unique to its location in North County San Diego and La Jolla.
