Activities vary depending on age group. For example, the Kinders (ages 4 - 5) participate in age appropriate activities. Kinders enjoy circle time, sing songs, stories and free play as well as instruction in cooperative games, sports, arts and crafts, drama, and water fun.
Themes: A different theme each week helps to inspire and guide activities, and ensure that campers can attend every week and never be bored! See our list of themes here.
Cooperative Games: Nurturing cooperation, promoting life skills and building self esteem are the goals of the cooperative games component of Winners Day Camps. Winners Day Camps campers enjoy participating in active cooperative games including Parachute games, Octopus, Witches in the Gluepot, Farmer Farmer, Four Corners, Dodgeball, Everyone’s It and many, many more! In a fun, creative and non-competitive environment, children develop their ability to work well with others, pursue goals, think positively, have fun, and much, much more!
Sports: Campers enjoy sports in an active, positive and upbeat atmosphere. Highly-qualified staff teach children the fundamental sport psychology skills of positive thinking, visualization, and goal setting, for application to sport and life. Campers are given the opportunity to participate in soccer, basketball, dodgeball, floor hockey, and much more.
Activity Stations: Arts and Crafts, Drama, Circle Games, Water Fun, Musical Experiences, Theme Activities and more keep campers engaged all day, every day!
