Day Camp
Grades 1 - 5
Description
Junior Vet camp is an in-depth first experience for elementary students exploring what it’s like to help animals! We’ll explore hospitalizing patients with your own stuffed animal and role-playing as stuffed animal surgeons. Campers will learn real life skills like how to de-skunk a dog. New activities are added every year, and this year there will be animal eye activities and horse endoscopy. Campers will experience the fellowship of being with other animal lovers especially as they are guided by pre-veterinary students of Kent State University! (Who are joining us for the first time in 2024.)
During a camp day campers are guided through veterinary inspired activities and crafts that will leave you feeling like a nurturing caretaker and a knowledgeable explorer. Campers will create a basis for learning future concepts in medicine and physics as we explore through free-play and games. There are over 40 original and unique activities that are replicated nowhere else and that you’ll only be able to experience at Hudson Montessori. Each camp day will have its own theme and variety of different activities. These include hallmark activities like skeleton scavenger hunt and making your own stethescope. There will also be time at each camp day to earn your very own RedRover Readers empathy certification when you do all 5 camp days!
Dr. McQuait has been a practicing veterinarian for over ten years and has led programming at HMS for over 8 years. This camp meets for a total of five Friday afternoons. Campers can register for just 1, 2, 3, 4 or all 5 Fridays of camp. Each session is unique.
