Can anyone recommend an affordable daycamp for a 5 yr old with lots of outdoors activities? Thanks. ( He is going into Kindergarten in Sept.)

Not sure if you're looking for all day or half day...

We sent DD to Merrick Community when she was 3...it is a camp for preschoolers only - ages 3-6...

It was half day. It was great...small groups...outside a lot...a small filtered wading pool...nice ratio between staff and students.

Thanks for everyones responses.

I am in Merrick and my son goes to Merrick community and went there for camp last year. I love the school but was thinking he was ready for a little more structure at camp this year. He loves playing structured sports which they don't offer. Plus, my son can swim and they only have an 18 inch pool. I think he is way too big for that. He likes to go off the diving board at the public pool so a wading pool just seems too small.

I have looked into all those camps mentioned above but they're all really expensive and I only work parttime.

Maybe we will have to spend the few extra bucks.

Thanks
