Are you looking for a fun summer activity for your kids? Tye-Dyed Iguana offers a one week summer camp in house! During our camp, your child will be immersed in a world of exotic reptiles and bugs through hands-on education and demonstrations. They will spend five days in our store doing crafts and learning about animals. They will also receive a Tye-Dyed Iguana T-shirt that the entire class will Tie-Dye during one of their afternoons. Summer camp is for Kindergarten - 6th grade.

Let’s grow even more fun this summer! We have plenty of dirt, compost, insects, and plants... we just need to know how they all work to make something beautiful, and often tasty! Come garden with Mr. Gruszka as you learn how to work, weed, and care for a garden, big or small. Direct hands-in-the-dirt experiences and projects will allow you to take your “sprouting” skills home and continue growing after camp ends.

These drop -off experiences are catered to children ages 5 to 10 and take place in local parks (especially Tower Grove Park and Forest Park) during school breaks. At least two adults will supervise and support outdoor play and nature exploration for small groups of up to 15. Older children (middle-schoolers/high schoolers) can act as counselors. Families will be required to sign a waiver for their child to participate. Children can arrive as early as 9:30am with advance notice. Free museums or other indoors spaces will be utilized for indoor respite in case of extreme weather.

WSSL faculty Mr. Steve Cossey, Miss Erin Winkles, and Mr. Zack Zackmann invite campers to our Enchanted Forest Camp, an outdoor adventure filled with wonder and imagination! Campers will step into a magical woodland world, exploring our outdoor spaces and discovering the enchanted creatures that may be hiding along the way. Perhaps they’ll stumble upon a fairy home, catch a glimpse of a dragon’s tear, or uncover other forest surprises. As they wander through the enchanted forest, campers will collect natural materials to create their own fairy homes, bringing their imaginations to life outdoors. While the majority of the camp experience takes place outside, campers will enjoy a daily indoor restorative moment for rest, relaxation, and quiet connection. Indoor space will also be available as needed in the case of inclement weather.

Where the sun likes to giggle and the trees love to sway, Girl Scouts will arrive for a Seuss-tastic stay.
