Chicago Botanic Garden Spring 2019

Camp CBG Where Science, Nature & Fun Meet! June 17 – August 16 Camp CBG provides exciting and enriching learning experiences for your child, with programs for children ages 6 months to 15 years. The Garden offers weeklong camps each summer with morning, afternoon, and all-day options from June to August. Camp programming includes Stroller Walks for adults and little ones, two- or three- day camps for caregivers and preschoolers, half- or full-day drop-off camps, and exciting two-week full-day camps. Our camps invite you and your child to explore the Garden and experience something new. All camps include nature exploration, inquiry-based activities, games, hands-on projects, or plantings. Visit chicagobotanic.org/camp for details including camp descriptions, fees, and special attention services.
