The Toys and Games Camp at Clapping Hands Farm hosted Mon, Jun 23-Fri, Jun 27, 9am-5pm is a joyous week of romping and running, creative cooperative games, and just pure playful fun, including some traditional favorite games (yes – capture the flag!). Your children will spend the week entertaining themselves and one another using simple materials and raw imagination. This year’s featured toy-making projects have not yet been selected, but previous years have included everything from traditional folk toys to hydraulic robots.

In the afternoon, they have “Anything Goes” choice time, where campers help design and can request or lead any of their favorite activities. This will include some of their favorite toy-making projects from years past: parachutes, stomp rockets, hula hoops, puppets, and puppet theaters are all on the list of possibilities. For those who enjoy running around more, there will be plenty of running game options in the afternoon as well!

The cost is $350 per child. Ages 7-13 are welcome. Chatham County residents receive a $25 discount. There is a $25 discount for participants who register before January 30, 2025. Scholarships are available, and no one is turned away. Register here.
