Recent studies show that bilingual children have increased self-esteem, improved understanding and acceptance of other cultures, and improved ability in learning math and science. Join this successful, cutting edge language immersion program where preschoolers enjoy all the adventurous Camp Keshet activities, only speaking and listening in Spanish! Designed for campers with little or no Spanish knowledge.

Camp Keshet is for the youngest campers to have an incredible summer located within the Nierman Preschool campus. There are planned activities throughout the day. Under the guidance of qualified and experienced staff, many activities will be project-based as a group activity. There will also be opportunities for individual expression. Activities include art, music and movement, gardening, games, and cooking. There will be dress-up days such as crazy hair day, sports day, rainbow colors day, and pajama day which helps create a “camp spirit”. National and Jewish holidays will be celebrated. There will be scheduled outdoor time to include free play, gardening, sports, and water play. In addition, children will be celebrating Shabbat every Friday which includes candles, wine (juice), and challah blessings where they will share Challah. There will be no field trips this year. Camp Keshet has added water features so children will have water play directly on the Nierman Preschool campus. Napping will be available in each room. Children who do not nap will be engaged in extra activities such as music and movement, art, and games. There is an enhanced non-toxic cleaning and sanitizing protocol with ongoing attention given throughout the day.
