About Extended Day

This is an exciting new Nature Adventures option that provides flexibility for parents and kids during camps at the Museum. Extended day campers may be dropped off at the Museum from 8:30–9:00 AM and picked up between 3:00–5:00 PM. Children will be engaged in guided activities with instructors. Activities may not link directly to the camp topic, but they will still be educational and fun. Prices for extended day can be found under the camp description. Unfortunately, we cannot pro-rate for late drop-offs or early pick-ups.
